Background to Family
 
A group of more than 100 species, including many large genera that specialise on monocot plants, especially grasses (Poaceae) but also Cyperaceae and Iridaceae, e.g. Apamea, Mesapamea, Oligia, Photedes and Archanara. Other genera occur on dicot wetland plants. Members of the subfamily mainly feed in stems, rootstocks and roots.
