Ennomini

The Ennomini are a tribe of geometer moths in the Ennominae subfamily. They are large-bodied and rather undistinguished Ennominae, overall showing similarities to the closely related Azelinini and Nacophorini.

Most have a beige to brown color, and they rarely possess the disruptive cryptic patterns seen in many other geometer moths. A typical ennomiine wing pattern consists of two or three costal to dorsal sections, one of which is often darker in color. There is rarely more than one conspicuous dark or light spot on each side of both wings, and many do not have any particularly prominent markings at all.
