Prapasius

Prapasius is a genus of moths in the family Erebidae. The genus was first described by William Schaus in 1911. Species within the genus Prapasius are found in the Neotropical region.

The genus Prapasius is characterized by certain morphological features that distinguish it from other genera within the Erebidae family. These include details related to wing venation, antennal structure, and genitalic morphology. Detailed descriptions are typically found in taxonomic revisions of the group.

Currently, the genus Prapasius contains a limited number of described species. One notable species is Prapasius advena, also described by Schaus in 1911. Research on the Prapasius genus often involves its taxonomic classification, distribution, and sometimes its ecological role within its habitat. Further studies are ongoing to understand the full diversity and evolutionary relationships of moths within this genus.
