Calleremites is a monotypic moth genus in the family Geometridae. Its only species, Calleremites subornata, is found in China, Sikkim in India and Myanmar.[1] Both the genus and species were first described by William Warren in 1894[2] and it has only been seen three times since then, the latest in a forest in northern Myanmar.[3]
