Esarchos

Esarchos is a genus of moths belonging to the family Geometridae. These moths are characterized by their medium size and often cryptic coloration, which aids in camouflage against their natural backgrounds. The larvae of Esarchos species, like other geometrids, are typically inchworms and feed on various plant species. The genus is primarily found in the Palearctic region, with a distribution that includes parts of Europe and Asia. Information regarding the specific life cycles, host plants, and precise geographic ranges of all Esarchos species is often detailed in entomological literature and regional faunal surveys. Research into this genus contributes to the broader understanding of insect biodiversity and ecological interactions. The taxonomy of Esarchos has been subject to revision over time as new species are discovered and genetic studies provide further insights into their evolutionary relationships within the Geometridae family.
