Abraxini

The Abraxini are a tribe of geometer moths in the subfamily Ennominae. Here, the Cassymini are considered a specialized offshoot of the Abraxini and merged therein; some authors consider them a distinct tribe however.[2]

"Pantheridae" redirects here. For the big cat subfamily, see Pantherinae.

The Dorset cream wave (Stegania trimaculata) is placed in the Cassymini by authors recognizing them as separate tribe

Genera

As numerous ennominae genera have not yet been assigned to a tribe,[3] the genus list is preliminary. Most of the genera listed here would be placed in the Cassymini if these are considered separate.[4]

Heliomata, otherwise placed in the Macariini, might also belong here.

gollark: Quotes are `>`.
gollark: Huh. There are probably a lot of weird physical-world quirks like that then.
gollark: Grocery store automation might actually be a really hard case, since - as well as packages being non-rigid and in weird shapes/sizes - current grocery store designs involve customers physically interacting with products and moving them around and such.
