Geometer Moth Genera (Geometridae)

Geometer Moth Genera (Geometridae) is a Browse By group of the Nature Atlas that gathers genera of geometer moths, the slender-bodied moths of the family Geometridae, such as Achlora, a genus erected by the French entomologist Achille Guenée in 1857 whose single species is Achlora cuprearia and whose standing as a separate genus is disputed. An entry belongs here when its own cited article describes a genus of the family Geometridae. It excludes the ant, bee, beetle, mosquito, brush-footed butterfly and silkworm moth genera, which have groups of their own. The group lets a reader find one of the largest families of moths and compare its genera with the other insect groups of this subcategory.
