The Scolecocampinae are a subfamily of moths in the Erebidae family.

Contents

Taxonomy

Moths in the subfamily typically have an enclosed, sac-like tympanal pocket IV, split genital claspers with "costa extended dorsoapically into a long, free process," and a slender sacculus. Phylogenetic analysis supports the subfamily as a clade within Erebidae, but its contents are a topic of further study.
