''Zamagiria'' is a genus of small moths belonging to the snout moth family (Pyralidae). They are part of the huge snout moth subfamily Phycitinae, but their exact relationships are obscure, and they are currently not assigned to a particular tribe of Phycitinae. This genus is almost exclusively found in the Neotropics. One species (''Z. laidion'') ranges north up to Florida, and one other (''Z. exedra'') was described from a specimen collected on Nuku Hiva in the Marquesas Islands. But the latter may simply have been accidentally introduced, being in reality a Neotropical species whose native range has not yet been discovered.〔Clarke (1986)〕 ''Zamagiria'' moths can usually be recognized in the field by their wing veins; the forewing has 11 veins (vein 7 is missing), and veins 4 and 5 almost connect at the base in the forewings, while on the hindwings veins 4 and 5 are connected along half of their entire length.〔 Species of ''Zamagiria'' include:〔Clarke (1986), and see references in Savela (2003)〕 * ''Zamagiria australella'' (Hulst, 1900) * ''Zamagiria dixolophella'' Dyar, 1914 * ''Zamagiria exedra'' Clarke, 1986 * ''Zamagiria kendalli'' Blanchard, 1970 * ''Zamagiria laidion'' (Zeller, 1881) ==Footnotes== 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「Zamagiria」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
