Globia is a genus of moths called "arches", in the family Noctuidae. There are about seven described species in Globia. They are found in the holarctic.
This genus was formerly called Capsula, but the name was replaced with Globia because of a naming conflict with a mollusk. Prior to that, the species were classified in the genus Archanara.[1][2][3]
