Scoliopteryginae
The Scoliopteryginae are a subfamily of moths in the Erebidae family. Larvae have distinctive, extra setae on the first through seventh abdominal segments. Many adult moths in the subfamily have a proboscis adapted to pierce fruit skin, allowing consumption of the juice in the fruit.
