The genus Hypotrix (Guenée, 1852) originally included 23 species from southern Mexico to Brazil and Peru. In 2010, based on genital character and novel genetic information, 11 species of Trichorthosia (Grote, 1883), one species of Trichagrotis (McDunnough 1929), and four species from Hexorthodes (McDunnough, 1929) were brought in to form the revised genus Hypotrix.[1]
