Euchromiina


The Euchromiina are a subtribe of tiger moths in the family Erebidae. It was described by Arthur [Gardiner Butler] in 1876. Many species in the subtribe are mimics of wasps. Euchromiina have always been considered closely related to the subtribe Ctenuchina due to their similarity to moths and wasps. These two subtribes make up around 3,000 valid species, the majority of which occur in the Neotropics.
