Hemitheini
Though small in absolute diversity of genera, the Hemitheini are nonetheless the largest tribe (biology), tribes of geometer moths in the subfamily Geometrinae. Like most Geometrinae, they are small greenish "emerald moths". The tribe was first described by Charles Théophile Bruand d'Uzelle in 1846. In some treatments the Comostolini, Hemistolini, Jodini, Microloxiini, Thalassodini and Thalerini are split off as independent tribes. But they are probably paraphyletic among themselves and with respect to the remaining Hemitheini. Consequently, until more information is available they are included in the Hemitheini here. In other systems, the Geometrinae are defined in a more inclusive way; the Hemitheini are then ranked as a subtribe Hemitheiti. Selected genera and species A few Geometrinae genera are not yet assigned to a tribe with certainty; some of them might belong here too.See references in Savela (2007) * ''Albinospila'' - formerly in ''Prasinocyma'' * ''Anoplosceles'' * ...

Geometrinae
Geometrinae is the nominate subfamily of the geometer moth family (Geometridae). It is strongly split, containing a considerable number of tribes of which most are presently very small or monotypic. These small moths are often a light bluish green, leading to the common name of emerald moths, though a few species called thus are also found in the tribe Campaeini of the Ennominae. In 2018, a phylogeny and classification based on a molecular phylogenetic analysis was published in the ''Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society'' in which 13 tribes were accepted. There are about 2,300 described species, mostly from the tropics.

Common Emerald
The common emerald (''Hemithea aestivaria'') is a moth of the family Geometridae. The species is found throughout the Nearctic and Palearctic regions and the Near East. It is mostly commonly found in the southern half of the Ireland and Britain. It was accidentally introduced into southern British Columbia in 1973. Description All wings are generally soft grey-green with grey and white chequered fringes and narrow white fascia, two on the forewing, one on the hindwing. The green colouration tends not to fade over time as much as in other emeralds. The hindwings have a sharply angled termen giving the moth a very distinctive shape. The wingspan is 30–35 mm.
