Taxonomy
Moths in the subfamily typically have an enclosed, sac-like tympanal pocket, split genital claspers with "costa extended dorsoapically into a long, free process," and a slender sacculus.[1]
Phylogenetic analysis supports the subfamily as a clade within Erebidae, but its contents are a topic of further study.[2][3]
Genera
gollark: PotatOS has a much better architecture for this.
gollark: I don't do portability; anyone trying to make my code work will have much bigger issues than the *platform*.
gollark: (This is *only* for purposes)
gollark: I wonder if I can safely *receive* emails just by hosting a simple SMTP server without any of the complex antispam etc. stuff for outbound emails.
gollark: Just use node.js.
