Carnotena is a genus in the American silkworm moth family Apatelodidae. There are about six described species in Carnotena, found in South America.[1][2]
Carnotena xanthiata was formerly the sole species of this genus. In research published in 2024 by Orlandin et al., six species were transferred from the genus Thelosia to Carnotena, and Carnotena xanthiata became Carnotena perlineata.[1]
