Hypenodinae

The Hypenodinae are a subfamily of moths in the family Erebidae. Adult moths of most species of this subfamily lack small, simple eyes near the large, compound eyes and have quadrifine (four-veined) hindwing cells. The micronoctuid moths are an exception because they possess simple eyes and bifine (two-veined) hindwing cells.

Taxonomy

Phylogenetic studies have shown that this subfamily should include the micronoctuid moths as a Micronoctuini tribe.[1][2]

gollark: The proof of the halting problem being impossible is pretty simple.
gollark: If you can "figure it out", a computer can do the same thing, except it can't.
gollark: No. Not for arbitrary TMs.
gollark: I made my laptop determine whether arbitrary Turing machines would halt and now I have attained 26 octillion bees and the solution to the Riemann hypothesis.
gollark: I know! The great thing about it is that, via the principle of explosion, you can derive *anything* from that!
