Boletobiinae

Taxonomy

Phylogenetic analysis has determined that several subfamilies of the Erebidae family that have been proposed in entomological literature since 2005, including Araeopteroninae, Aventiinae, Boletobiinae, Eublemminae, and Phytometrinae, together form a strongly supported clade as an aggregated Boletobiinae subfamily. The tribe-level groupings of genera within this expanded Boletobiinae subfamily are a topic of continued study.
