''Dodia'' is a genus of woolly bear moths in the Erebidae family. The moths are found in subarctic tundra and taiga ecosystems. They belong to the subtribe Callimorphina of tribe Arctiini.〔Rekelj & Česanek (2009), and see references in Haaramo (2010)〕 Like most of their closest relatives, they are mid-sized moths (a few cm/around 1 inch wingspan) which may be active all day, but avoid direct sunlight. Unlike many of the Callimorphina, they are inconspicuous and colored a somewhat translucent grey-brown and without bold markings. They have the typical slender body shape of other species of their subtribe, and they resemble, at a casual glance, certain larentiine geometer moths (Geometridae), e.g. the Operophterini, rather than the more typical Callimorphina. Like in the former, flightless females are known to occur in ''Dodia''.〔Rekelj & Česanek (2009)〕 ==Species== Long held to contain only two species, several more have been discovered and described since the 1980s. Consequently, it is quite possible that further species await discovery. As of 2009, the known species are:〔Pitkin & Jenkins (2004), Rekelj & Česanek (2009), and see references in Haaramo (2010)〕 * ''Dodia albertae'' Dyar, 1901 * ''Dodia diaphana'' (Eversmann, 1848) * ''Dodia kononenkoi'' Tshistjakov & Lafontaine, 1984 * ''Dodia maja'' Rekelj & Česanek, 2009 * ''Dodia sazonovi'' Dubatolov, 1990 * ''Dodia verticalis'' Lafontaine & Troubridge, () 1999 * ''Dodia tarandus'' Schmidt et Macaulay, 2009 * ''Dodia transbaikalensis'' Tshistjakov, 1988 (sometimes in ''D. kononenkoi'') 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dodia」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
