Hawaiian Pyraloidea IV

The lepidopteran superfamily Pyraloidea is comprised of more than 16,000 species in two families, Crambidae and Pyralidae, making it the third largest group of moths and butterflies. The group is taxonomically uncertain, with the phylogenetic placement of many genera, and even some families, still up for debate. The group has an amazing diversity of life histories, and while many are leaf or plant feeders, others prey on scale insects or live among ant and bee colonies. Some are aquatic, others are adapted to extremely dry environments and others still feed on detritus of various sorts. A number of species are economically important. The greatest diversity of these moths is in the tropics, but they are distributed around the world. Two of the defining features of the group are the basally scaled proboscus which the moths sport in addition to their abdominal tympanal organs. The former has earned them the nickname “snout” moths. Please help the UHIM transcribe its collection of diverse and economically important Pyraloidea moths. The total number of tasks for this dataset is: 505, number transcribed is 505 and number validated is 0.鳞翅目（Lepidoptera）螟蛾总科（Pyraloidea）包含草螟科（Crambidae）与螟蛾科（Pyralidae）两个科，共计超过16000个物种，是全球第三大的蛾类与蝶类类群。该类群的分类学地位尚存争议，诸多属乃至部分科的系统发育位置仍未有定论。螟蛾总科类群的生活史多样性极高：多数类群为植食性，取食叶片或植物组织；部分类群捕食介壳虫，或栖息于蚁群、蜂群中；另有水生类群，部分类群适应极端干旱环境，还有类群以各类腐殖质为食。诸多物种具有经济重要性。该类群的多样性峰值出现在热带区域，但全球范围内均有分布。该类群兼具基部覆鳞的喙（proboscis）与腹部鼓膜器官这两个典型鉴别特征，这也使其获得了“喙蛾（snout moths）”的俗称。本数据集旨在协助夏威夷大学昆虫标本馆（UHIM）对其馆藏的多样且具有经济重要性的螟蛾总科蛾类开展转录标注工作。本数据集的总任务量为505项，已完成转录标注的样本数为505，待验证样本数为0。
