Noctuoid moths (except Arctiinae)
This moth sub-category for the superfamily Noctuoidea contains the large families Noctuidae and Erebidae as well the smaller Euteliidae, Nolidae, Notodontidae and Oenosandridae. The Arctiinae also belong to this superfamily, but are distinctive and well known so are given their own moth sub-category
