Sterrhinae is a large subfamily of the geometer moth family (Geometridae) with some 2,800 described species. == Systematics == Sterrhinae is in fact a junior synonym of Idaeidae (Butler, 1881). Seeing this name is hardly used in literature and Sterrhinae is widely used, this name is preferred. The Tribe Lythriini with the genus ''Lythria'' (Hübner, 1823) and the species ''Lythria cruentaria'' (Hufnagel, 1767) was transferred from Larentiinae in 2008.〔Erki Õunap, Jaan Viidalepp & Urmas Saarma: ''Systematic position of Lythriini revised: transferred from Larentiinae to Sterrhinae (Lepidoptera, Geometridae).'' Zoologica Scripta, 37(4): 405-413, Oxford 2008 〕 The subfamily is divided into eight tribes: * Cosymbiini Prout, 1911 * Cyllopodini Kirby, 1892 * Lythriini Herbulot, 1962 * Rhodometrini Agenjo, 1952 * Rhodostrophiini Prout, 1935 * Scopulini Duponchel, 1845〔Tribe Scopulini recognised after revision Pasi Sihvonen (2005) at the moment only seven genera〕 * Sterrhini Meyrick, 1892 * Timandrini Stephens, 1850 Furthermore, a number of genera are unplaced to a tribe, these are: *''Chorizomena'' Turner, 1939 (Sterrhini?) *''Crypsityla'' Warren, 1900 *''Dualana'' Strand, 1914 (Rhodostrophiini?) *''Haemalea'' Hubner, 1823 *''Leptostales'' Moschler, 1890 (Sterrhini?, Scopulini?) *''Neothysanis'' Dognin, 1916 (Sterrhini?) *''Proutoscia'' Schaus, 1912 *''Pseudasellodes'' Warren, 1904 Saffron playboy (Xanthiris flaveolata).JPG|Saffron playboy ''Xanthiris flaveolata'' Saffron playboys (Xanthiris flaveolata).JPG|puddling, Cristalino River, Southern Amazon, Brazil 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「Sterrhinae」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
