didinamas

Didinamas is a genus of moths in the family Erebidae. The genus was first described by William Warren in 1896. These moths are found in Australia.

The adult moths of the genus Didinamas are characterized by their broad wings and often cryptic coloration, which helps them blend in with their surroundings. The specific patterns and colors can vary between species. Their larvae are typically herbivorous, feeding on specific host plants. Information regarding the life cycle and exact dietary habits of many species within this genus may be limited in public literature.

The taxonomic classification places Didinamas within the subfamily Arctiinae, commonly known as tiger moths or lichen moths, which are part of the larger Erebidae family. This subfamily is diverse, with many species exhibiting bright warning coloration, though this is not universally true for all members. Research into the ecological roles and biodiversity of Didinamas species is ongoing.
