[Leps-l] Anyone ever hear of moths referred to as Heterocerids?

[John Shuey]

Am I falling behind the times – or is this a made up term?  A quote from an SER publication –

 “As a scientist and naturalist, Blaine has spent hundreds of nights conducting Nocturnal Lepidoptera (Heterocerids, a.k.a. Moths) surveys across the state of New Jersey”.


Thanks,
