This family is usually considered to belong with the microlepidoptera, but it contains many species that are just as large as some macromoths. The pyralids have not yet been covered by Mariposas del Ecuador, so I have been unable to identify any of the species, and none of the photos below have names.

The gallery below shows a few of the species that have been recorded at the Lodge. Click on each photo to see an enlarged picture.
