The Crambidae (grass moths) are quite variable in appearance, they rest in folded postures on grass stems where they are inconspicuous,
In many classifications, the Crambidae have been treated as a subfamily of the Pyralidae or snout moths. The principal difference is a structure in the ears called the praecinctorium, which joins two tympanic membranes in the Crambidae, and is absent from the Pyralidae.
