The turpis -group
Diagnosis – Large or medium-sized moths with not extremely long and moderately or strongly bipectinated male antennae, moderately elongate, apically acute forewings. Colouration simple, nearly concolorous grey or brownish, markings regular, often faint. Male brush organ present.
In the male genitalia, uncus long and narrow; cucullus rounded triangular with moderately elongate “neck”; ampulla elongate, often slightly falcate. Since the genital capsule of the different members of the group is very similar, the pectination of antennae appears as important specific character.
