Adults – Small to medium-sized notodontid moths, forewing 10–22 mm, females larger than males; male antenna bipectinate for 4/5 of length with pectinations decreasing toward antennal tip, last 1/5 simple; female antenna simple; palpi upcurved to medial area of frons, second segment 2 x first segment in length, 3^rd segment very small and slightly decumbent; scaling appressed; haustellum present, ocelli absent. Thoracic scaling not tightly appressed, without tufts, concolorous with forewing; abdominal scaling appressed, without tufts, concolorous with hindwing. Forewing with M1 from proximal third of narrow accessory cell; hindwing with Sc from middle of cell diverging from Rs and straight; Rs and M1 connate from upper angle and M3 and Cu1 connate from lower angle of the cell. Male terminal tergites distinctive. Male genitalia – Uncus short, rounded, sometimes divided; socii sclerotized, upcurved; valves with costal margin sclerotized, sometimes with projections; anal margin often partially but narrowly sclerotized and usually diagnostic; juxta undifferentiated, transtilla membraneous; phallus well developed, sclerotized, usually extending to uncus and narrowing distally; often with distinct lateral and dorsolateral processes; eighth sternum diagnostic, quadrate basally but often with multiple distal projections. Female genitalia – Ovipositor lobes large, often sclerotized, ostia sclerotized, ductus and corpus bursae reduced, membranous and without signa. Larvae – Brightly colored, feeding on monocots.
