Euchromia Dubia
''Euchromia'' is a genus of moths in the subfamily Arctiinae (moth), Arctiinae. The genus was erected by Jacob Hübner in 1819. The genus ''Euchromia'', established by Jacob Hübner in 1819, comprises some of the most vividly colored tropical burnet moths within the subfamily Arctiinae of the family Erebidae. These moths are renowned for their brilliant hues and striking patterns, often resembling wasps—a form of Batesian mimicry that serves as a defense mechanism against predators. In his 1888 paper, entomologist Arthur G. Butler provided a comprehensive review of the ''Euchromia'' species housed in the British Museum (Natural History), describing 26 species and highlighting their distinct characteristics and geographical distributions. Also, a paper by A. G. Butler, presented to the Entomological Society, new species of the ''Euchromia'' genus were discussed, along with descriptions of these species in the British Museum's collection. This contribution is significant in unde ...
