Tribe in text does not match classification
[edit]The classification on the right lists the tribe as Bistonini. The text shows the taxonomic history ending with Hypagyrtis in the tribe Boarmiini. BugGuide.net lists it in the tribe Bistonini. iNaturalist lists it in the tribe Boarmiini.
Molecular phylogeny, classification, biogeography and diversification patterns of a diverse group of moths (Geometridae: Boarmiini) published in 2021 mentions the genus just once, in the results: "Our analyses also show very well-supported clades, for instance Erannis Hübner, 1825 + Biston Leach, 1815, Eubordeta Rothschild, 1904 + Orthofidonia Packard, 1876 + Arichanna Moore, 1867, Alcis Curtis 1826 + Selidosema Hübner, 1823 + Peribatodes Wehrli 1943, Hypagyrtis Hübner 1818".
This suggests that the correct current placement of Hypagyrtis is in the tribe Boarmiini. Johnvalo (talk) 09:52, 22 October 2022 (UTC)
