Amphipyrinae are recovered as sister to Acronictinae, but with weak support \u2013 not surprisingly, the content of the two subfamilies has often been mixed in classifications. Balsinae, previously placed near Acronictinae or within Noctuinae, is recovered within an unresolved polytomy of Cuculliinae, Eustrotiinae, Raphiinae and Dilobinae.\n Gerbathodes<\/jats:italic>\n Warren,\n Moma<\/jats:italic>\n H\u00fcbner and\n Nacna<\/jats:italic>\n Fletcher are excluded from Acronictinae.
