Which genus contains the greatest number of species, Lomatia or Delosperma?
Delosperma Delosperma ('delos'=evident, 'sperma'=seed) is a genus of around 100 species of succulent plants, formerly included in "Mesembryanthemum" in the family Aizoaceae. The family is common in southern and eastern Africa.
Hyposmocoma Hyposmocoma is a large and diverse genus of moths with 320-350 known species that have adapted to nearly every ecological niche on the Hawaiian Islands. Most species have plant-based diets. In four species of "Hyposmocoma" (one is "Hyposmocoma molluscivora") caterpillars spin silk that they use to capture snails, on which they prey. These are the first caterpillars known to eat snails (or mollusks of any kind). Some species are amphibious. This trait has evolved at least 3 times within this genus.
