Oxyartes
Oxyartes is a genus of moths belonging to the family Cossidae, commonly known as carpenter moths. These moths are characterized by their robust bodies and, in some species, their large size. The larvae of Oxyartes moths are wood-boring, feeding on the wood of various trees, which can sometimes lead to damage in timber or host plants. The genus is primarily found in the Neotropical region, with species distributed across Central and South America.
The adult moths typically have a wingspan that can range from several centimeters to over ten centimeters,
