Arctiini |
The Arctiinae are a subfamily of moths.
Systematics
The systematics of the Arctiinae are in need of revision. The arrangement followed here is based on the preliminary consensus list of Savela (2007). Sometimes the Ctenuchinae and the Pericopinae are merged in the Arctiinae as tribes too.
Arctiinae incertae sedis
A considerable number of genera has not been robustly assigned to a tribe yet. Some of these might even not belong into the Arctiidae at all. The genera incertae sedis are:
Some notable taxa

- Halysidota schausi Rothschild, 1909
- Hypercompe icasia (Cramer, 1777)
- Opharus bimaculata (Dewitz, 1877)
- Pachydota albiceps (Walker, 1856)
