Danaes

Danaes is a genus of moths in the family Geometridae. The genus was described by William Warren in 1894. Danaes moths are found in the Indomalayan realm.

The genus Danaes is characterized by its wing patterns, which often feature intricate markings and a range of colors. The larval stage of Danaes moths typically feeds on specific host plants within their native habitats. Information on the exact host plants for all species within this genus may vary and is often subject to ongoing entomological research.

The genus currently contains a limited number of described species. Further research and taxonomic studies are important for a complete understanding of the biodiversity within the Danaes genus. Like many moths, Danaes plays a role in its ecosystem, potentially as a food source for other animals or through its interaction with host plants. Conservation status for individual species within Danaes is not widely documented, indicating a potential area for future study.
