All-Leps
While doing the research for a new guide page, I used the same bookmarked link I've used a thousand times to see what All-Leps had to say about the status of the species- and got a 404 error. It turns out that the site has rearranged things, and now uses a new classification scheme. I'm sure it won't be much different at the species level, but it no longer shows superfamilies, and the families and subfamilies aren't the same. The only difference I noticed straight off was that the Erebidae has been lumped back in with the Noctuidae, but there are probably others.
The main problem I see is that our higher classification is based on All-Leps, which no longer supports it. Is there another source that will provide that, or are we going to have to muddle through on a case-by-case basis?
