Aegeriidae

/ɪˌdʒɛriˈeɪdi/ noun

Definition

A family of moths (now taxonomically classified as Sesiidae) with clear wings, resembling wasps or other insects, and including various wood-boring and stem-boring species.

Etymology

Latinized scientific family name derived from 'Aegeria' (the type genus) with the standard taxonomic family suffix '-idae.' This nomenclature preserves the nymph reference in formal classification.

Kelly Says

Aegeriidae used to be the 'official' family name but taxonomists renamed them Sesiidae in the 1980s—it's a reminder that even scientific names aren't permanent; they're just our best current understanding of relationships.
