The Euliini are a tribe of tortrix moths.

Distribution

Most Euliini (nearly 98%) are found in the Neotropics and a small number is found in the Nearctic. Only Eulia is found in the Old World, since it has a Holarctic distribution.

Diversity

The tribe includes over 650 described species in nearly 90 genera. Most species have been described in recent years.

Taxonomic History

The tribe was first proposed as Euliae by Kuznetsov and Stekolnikov (1977) as a subtribe of Cochylini. Powell elevated the group to tribal status in 1986. Research by Regier et al. in 2012 has provided fairly convincing evidence that Cochylini are a monophyletic lineage within a broader Euliini. If this is accepted, Cochylini should be treated as subtribe Cochylina of Euliini.

Biology

The larvae of most species are leaf-rollers or leaf-folders. However, some may be gall-inducers or leaf litter-feeders.[1]
