... Some moths of this group are serious pests as mentioned under host plants in this manuscript. The information presented in this checklist is compiled based on all available published literature (Ades and Kendrick 2004;Bruand 1846;Cotes and Swinhoe 1889;Deng et al., 2012;Hampson 1893Hampson , 1894Hampson , 1895Hampson , 1896Hampson , 1898Hampson , 1900Hampson , 1901Hampson , 1905Hampson , 1910Hampson , 1911Hampson , 1912Hampson , 1914Hampson , 1918Hampson , 1920Holloway 1998Holloway , 2003Hu et al., 2012Inoue 1982Inoue , 1991Inoue , 1991aInoue , 1998Inoue , 2000Inoue , 2001Pinratana 2005, 2013;László et al., 2004László et al., -2008László et al., 2010;László et al., 2013László et al., , 2013aLászló et al., , 2013bLászló et al., , 2013cLászló et al., , 2014aLászló et al., , 2014bLászló et al., , 2014cLászló et al., , 2014dLászló et al., , 2015László et al., , 2015aLászló et al., , 2015bMatsumura 1930;Moore 1867Moore , 1888Moore , 1888aPoole 1989;Rothschild 1912Rothschild , 1913Sevastopulo 1938Sevastopulo , 1948Sevastopulo , 1956Strand 1920). So far no comprehensive work on the Nolidae of India has been published and the entire fauna of the Indian subcontinent is poorly studied. ...
... Remarks: North Kanara was erroneously mentioned as West India for type locality of the type species by László et al., 2013 while discussing distribution of the genus, the correct geographical assignment is South India. ...
An updated checklist of 91 species under 21 genera of the subfamily Nolinae has been compiled. The detailed information
about distribution within India as well as in other countries, first reference, latest reference, type locality, type depository,
synonymy has been provided for each species. Clarifications regarding type locality, type material and distributional limits
within India are also given.
... The world Lepidopterum catalogus of Noctuidae by Poole (1989) is still the major reference for Nolidae species. A huge gap in taxonomic studies occurs for this family regarding the Indian fauna although some of the major works from surrounding countries/regions by Kobes (1987;Sumatra), Nepal), Holloway ( , 2008Holloway ( , 2009Borneo), Kononenko & Pinratana (2013;Thailand), László et al.

Apart from the aforementioned publications, a few but important contributions covering distribution and range extensions of some nolid species within India are Sevastopulo (1938Sevastopulo ( , 1956, Mandal & Maulik (1991), Francy & Mathew (2006), Mathew (2004), Mathew et al.

The present catalogue is the first résumé of the family Nolidae Bruand, 1846 recorded in India comprising 354 species under 98 genera of 6 subfamilies, including four new records to India: Casminola seminigra (Hampson, 1896), Evonima ronkaygabori Han & Hu, 2019, Meganola suffusata (Wileman & West, 1929) and Nola euryzonata (Hampson, 1900). The Indian Nolidae represents 16.2 % of the global species (2,179 species) of Nolidae. The information on the type locality, type depository, sex of the type (wherever available), first reference, synonymy, host plants (wherever available) and distribution within as well as outside India for each of the included species is provided. Some clarifications regarding type locality, type depository along with new distributional records within Indian states are also given with 72 images of adults.
... The faunal study of the subfamily Nolinae Hampson, 1894 in the Oriental region was poorly studied during the past century, but considerable research has been made since the end of the 1990′s (Inoue 1998;Holloway 2003;László et al 2004László et al , 2005László et al , 2006László et al , 2007aLászló et al , 2007bLászló et al , 2010Kononenko and Pinratana 2013;László et al 2013aLászló et al , 2013bLászló et al , 2013cLászló et al , 2013dQi et al 2013a;László et al 2014aLászló et al , 2014bLászló et al , 2014cLászló et al , 2014dLászló et al , 2014e, 2015aLászló et al , 2015bLászló et al , 2015c termen relatively darker than ground color of forewing. Ground color of hindwing light brown and gradually darkened to margin, with a gray dot on discal cell. ...
Three genera of subfamily Nolinae Hampson are reported for the first time from Laos, with three new records: Mokfanola crustaceata László, Ronkay & Witt, 2010, Varganola flavibasis (Hampson, 1900) and Suerkenola sublongiventris Shao & Han, 2010. Illustrations of the adults and the genitalia of all examined species are provided.
... Later, during the progress of the study, more and more museum collections have been involved to the investigation, resulting in a continuous discovery of new taxa. One of the main target groups of this study was the Meganola genus-group (László, Ronkay & Witt 2004, 2006, 2007a, b, 2010, László, Ronkay & Ronkay, 2013a, b, c, d, 2014a, b, c, d, e, f, 2015. The examination of a large Nolini material from eastern and south-eastern Asia and the thorough study of the type specimens provided the discovery of a large number of new Meganola species and led to the establishment of a number of new genera. ...
Present paper contains the descriptions of four new genera distinguished from the collecting genus Meganola s.l. (Hamp-sonola, Wittonola, Fragilonola and Maculonola gen. n.) and 11 new species (Meganola pseudobasalactifera, Hampsono-la diehli, H. subbasirufa, H. angustifasciata, H. stueningi, H. micra, Wittonola latifasciata, Nanola rothschildi, Fragilonola fragilis, F. parentela and Maculonola dolokmerangirensis spp. n.) from South East Asia. Based on genital morphology the concept of the genus Nanola is extended, involving several species treated earlier as Meganola. Meganola yakovlevi László, Ronkay & Ronkay, 2010 is synonymised with M. tetrodon (de Joannis, 1928), and M. pekarskyi László, Ronkay & Ronkay, 2014 is synonymised with Nanola liaoningensis (Han & Li, 2008), syn. n. 45 new combinations and 2 new stati are established. With 48 colour photos and 42 genitalia figures.
... The rapidly extending knowledge provided the base for the first large revisional works published before and after the millennium (e.g. Holloway 2003;Hacker et al. 2012; the publications of the authors and Thomas Witt, László, Ronkay & Witt 2004, 2007, and 2010, László, Ronkay & Ronkay 2013a-d, 2014a-f, and 2015. These studies induced the clarification of the phylogenetic connections of the main trunks of the Nolini and defined a number of these large clades as distinct genera. ...
Present paper contains the characterisation of the genera Proneca Swinhoe, 1890, Ctenane Swinhoe, 1905, and Selca Walker, 1866, and their species, with the description of two new species, Proneca brunneostriata sp. n. and Ctenane michaeli sp. n., from Sumatra. Two new combinations and a new synonymy are established. With 32 colour photos and 24 genitalia figures.
