Identification

Pohl, et al. (2016) list 126 species.(1) This guide should be used only as a first step in identification; some species can't be confidently separated from photos, and some belong to species complexes with unclear species limits. Where possible, multiple images have been added for variable or sexually dimorphic species. All North American species are included here with the exception of seven of the species in the Choristoneura fumiferana group (spruce budworm complex) as well as 34 species without images in the guide and two with only pinned images in the guide, leaving 83 species with images on this page.
