The Semi-looper,[1] (Trigonodes hyppasia), is a moth formerly of the Noctuidae family. The Noctuidae family of moths are mostly classified in the family Erebidae now, along with all of the former members of the families Arctiidae and Lymantriidae.[2] This re-classification has not yet met with general consensus, and many resources and publications still follow the older classification scheme (e.g.[3]). It is found from the Old World tropics and subtropics east to Fiji and Tonga.
The wingspan is about 30 mm.
The larvae feed on Chrysopogon, Eleusine Glycine, Indigofera, Kummerovia, Medicago, Phaseolus, Rhynchosia and Nephelium species.
