title: Margaroniini
text: # Margaroniini
  
  Margaroniini is a tribe of the species-rich subfamily Spilomelinae in the pyraloid moth family Crambidae. The tribe was erected by Charles Swinhoe and Everard Charles Cotes in 1889, originally as family $Margaronidae.^{:613}$
  
  The tribe comprises a number of economically impactful species whose caterpillars feed on agricultural crops. These species include the legume pod borer (Maruca vitrata), the jasmine moth (Palpita vitrealis) on olives, the cucumber moth (Diaphania indica), species of the genus Conogethes such as the yellow peach moth (C. punctiferalis), and the coconut leafroller (Omiodes blackburni). Furthermore, the box tree moth (Cydalima perspectalis) is included in this tribe.
