Sematurinae
Sematurinae is a subfamily of moths in the family Sematuridae, represented by at least 29 species in the Neotropics.
==Taxonomy, classification and identification==
Sematurinae has three principal genera, and possibly another two. The hindwing of ''Coronidia'' is distinguished by an iridescent blue band, but ''Homidiana'' characteristically has pink, orange or yellow markings, especially in females (Minet and Scoble, 1999). The genus ''Sematura'' is large, brown and tailed, resembling to some extent the genus ''Lyssa''. The approximately twelve other sematurid species in the genera ''Anurapteryx'' and ''Lonchotura'' are placed here for now (making about 41 species) but may not belong in this subfamily; one species, ''Anurapteryx crenulata'' reaches the subtropics of Arizona〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=nitro.biosci.arizona.edu )〕 (Minet and Scoble, 1999). The relationships within Sematuridae clearly need deeper investigation.
*Note: the name ''Nothus'' is preoccupied by a genus of Coleoptera so despite its lack of date precedence the name ''Sematura'' should be preferred (Minet and Scoble, 1999). ''Mania'' was however described at an earlier date (1821; 1823 listed in LepIndex) than ''Sematura'' according to Index Animalium〔(sil.si.edu )〕 so whilst this is not a name in popular use, the priority issue should be further examined.
