Cimeliidae, the gold moths (formerly known as Axiidae[1] ), is a family of moths that is now placed in the macroheteroceran superfamily Drepanoidea,[2] although previously placed in its own superfamily.[1] Uniquely, they have a pair of pocket-like organs on the seventh abdominal spiracle of the adult moth[3] which are only possibly sound receptive organs.[4] They are quite large and brightly coloured moths that occur in southern Europe and feed on species of Euphorbia . Sometimes they are attracted to light. The family was first described by Pierre Chrétien in 1916.[3]
