Altogether, 1646 species (against An inventory of 1646 species of pyralids so far recorded 1136 species reported in the Fauna of British India) is given. from India is presented indicating the year of publication While every attempt has been made to cover as many species and the current nomenclatural combination. A key adapted from literature is also given for separation of subfamilies. as possible, it is possible that some names could have been left out due to oversight. It is hoped that the present list may serve KEYWORDS as a draft for immediate reference until a detailed revision on Checklist, India, inventory, Lepidoptera, moths, Pyralidae, this group is prepared. subfamily key The classification followed in this work is the one proposed by Due to discovery of new species and also due to refinements in Munroe (1972) for the Pyralidae of America north of Mexico. the taxonomic techniques, considerable changes have taken Munroe and Solis (1999) have also given a detailed taxonomic place in the taxonomic status of various categories of the Indian treatment of this group.
