Autostichinae
__NOTOC__ The Autostichinae are a subfamily of moths in the Taxonomic rank, superfamily Gelechioidea. Like their relatives therein, their exact relationships are not yet very well resolved. The present lineage was often included in the concealer moth family (biology), family (Oecophoridae), but alternatively it is united with the Symmocidae ''sensu stricto'' (and often also the Holcopogonidae and/or certain genera otherwise considered twirler moths, e.g. ''Deoclona'' and ''Syringopais'') to form an expanded family Autostichidae (in the past also referred to as family Symmocidae). Selected genera Genera in this subfamily are:ABRS (2008), Wikispecies (2011-OCT-17) * ''Anaptilora'' Meyrick, 1904 * ''Autosticha'' Meyrick, 1886 (including ''Epicoenia, Semnolocha'') * ''Demiophila'' Meyrick, 1906 * ''Deroxena'' Meyrick, 1913 * ''Diophila'' Meyrick, 1937 * ''Encrasima'' Meyrick, 1916 * ''Galagete'' B.Landry, 2002 * ''Heliangara'' Meyrick, 1906 * ''Ischnodoris'' Meyrick, 1911 * ''Lasiodic ...

Autosticha
''Autosticha'' is a genus of gelechioid moths. It belongs to the subfamily Autostichinae, which is either placed in the concealer moth family (biology), family (Oecophoridae), or in an expanded Autostichidae. It is the type genus of its subfamily (and the Autostichidae). Originally, this genus was named ''Automola'', but this name properly refers to Automola, a fly genus in family Richardiidae. Typically, these moths have the second and third forewing vein emerging from a common stalk. The labial palp, labial palps are characteristically tapering from the second segment onwards and end in a pointed tip. Several originally independent genera are now included here, and while most of them are probably not even valid as subgenera, some species included in ''Autosticha'' have been historically assigned to entirely different Gelechioidea lineages, such as the long-horned moths (Lecithoceridae) or the Xyloryctidae. Species Species of ''Autosticha'' are:Clarke (1986), ABRS (2008), Wikis ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
