The Euchromiina are a subtribe of tiger moths in the family Erebidae. It was described by Arthur Gardiner Butler in 1876.[1] 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.[2]

Taxonomy

The subtribe was previously classified as the tribe Euchromiini of the subfamily Ctenuchinae of the family Arctiidae.

Genera

The following genera are included in the subtribe. [3]
