Asymphorodes

Asymphorodes is a genus in the subfamily Cosmopteriginae of the cosmet moth family (Cosmopterigidae). It is placed here based on the presence of pleural lobes on the 8th sternite of the males, which is an apomorphy for the cosmet family. Asymphorodes are found in southern Polynesia as well as the Hawaiian and the Solomon Islands, and are notable for their adaptive radiation on the Marquesas Islands.
