Nychiodes

Nychiodes is a palearctic genus of moths in the family Geometridae described by Julius Lederer in 1853.

[1] As of 2022[update], the genus comprises 27 species with a geographical distribution across Europe, northern Africa and parts of West, Central and South Asia.

[2] Species are typically large, with beige, grey or brown wings, and have slightly darkened wing tips, medium-sized discal spots on fore- and hindwings, and post- and antemedial lines on the forewings.

Genital examination is generally necessary to determine exact species as a result of significant morphological variability.
