Template:Short description Script error: No such module "Automated taxobox".
Phassodes is a moth genus of the family Hepialidae. As of 2018[update], it is monospecific, consisting of the sole species Phassodes vitiensis; this species is very variable. It is found in Fiji and Samoa.Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:Footnotes/anchor_id_list' not found. The life cycle is unknown but the larva is presumed to feed underground on the roots of plants or decaying matter.[3]
Taxonomic history
The British entomologist George Thomas Bethune-Baker first circumscribed the genus Phassodes in 1905. He included six species, all of which he described in the same work.[1] In 1950, the French entomologist Pierre Viette synonymized Bethune-Baker's P. nausori with P. vitiensis;[4] P. vitiensis was first described by Walter Rothschild in 1895.[2]
