| Abstract | ||
| In the last 2 papers for the revision of Noctuidae in Egypt, we revised 7 subfamilies (Xyleninae, Acronictinae, Heliothinae, Metoponiinae, Noctuinae, Oncocnemidinae, and Plusiinae) from the 16 subfamilies belonging to family Noctuidae. In this study, we are exposed to revise four subfamilies which are Acontiinae, Agaristinae, Amphipyrinae, and Hadeninae. These subfamilies contain 22 genera contain 55 species. Subfamily Hadeninae is the most representative subfamily with 29 species under 12 genera, while subfamilies Agaristinae and Amphipyrinae are the smallest subfamilies containing three species under two genera. Subfamily Acontiinae in the 2nd subfamily with 20 species under 6 genera. | ||
