About Angle Moth (Macariini sp)

  • Kingdom: Animals
  • Phylum: Arthropods
  • Class: Insects
  • Order: Butterflies and Moths
  • Family: Geometer Moths

The Macariini are a tribe of geometer moths in the subfamily Ennominae. Though they share many traits with the Sterrhinae, this is probably plesiomorphic rather than indicative of a close relationship, and DNA sequence data points to the Boarmiini as particularly close relatives of the Macariini. All things considered, this tribe might still resemble the first Ennominae more than any other living lineage in the subfamily.
