Pyralidae

Submitted by walwyn

 

The Crambidae are a large family of over 10,000 species of small to medium-sized moths in the superfamily Pyraloidea, with around 260 species recorded in the UK and over 1,000 in Europe. Until recently considered a subfamily of Pyralidae, they were recognized as a distinct family based on molecular and morphological evidence (e.g., Regier et al., 2012).
