The Boletobiinae are a subfamily of moths in the Erebidae family.[1][2]

Taxonomy

Phylogenetic analysis has determined that several subfamilies of the Erebidae family that have been proposed in entomological literature since 2005, including Araeopteroninae, Aventiinae, Boletobiinae, Eublemminae, and Phytometrinae, together form a strongly supported clade as an aggregated Boletobiinae subfamily. The tribe-level groupings of genera within this expanded Boletobiinae subfamily are a topic of continued study.[2][3]
