Abstract

The cladistic analysis of twenty two species of twelve genera of the sub-family Plusiinae is attempted by using their apomorphic characters from Pakistan. A cladogram is constructed and included taxa are discussed by their sister group and outgroup relationships on the basis of synapomorphies and autapomorphies.
