Agnoea is a genus of butterflies in the moth family Lypusidae. There are more than 20 described species in Agnoea.
==Taxonomy== Recent research has shown that the genus Pseudatemelia is one of those close to Lypusa, the type of the family Lypusidae. As a result, the genus Pseudatemelia has been dissolved and the species previously assigned to it transferred to the genus Agnoea.
