Description

The family is one of the largest among the Lepidoptera with about 25 000 known species all of which possess a postspiracular hood (Kitching 1984). The family is divided into 20 subfamilies of which the Pantheinae are not known from Australia. The subfamilies are frequently divided into two dubious groups, trifinae (Amphypyrinae-Heliothinae) and quadrifinae (Rivulinae-Plusiinae), based on the obsolescence or presence respectively of M 2 in the hind wing. ... source: What bug is that
