Pyraloidea

Here's a bunch of what used to be 'pyralids', complete with name changes for some of them. The Pyralidae now only covers some of what it did before, with the rest now under Crambidae - both under Pyraloidea. And to make it even more baffling, some of the Crambidae look like they should be Pyralidae. And vice-versa. I guess like for many, I'll just continue to generically refer to them all as 'pyralids'.
