perpetrara

Perpetrara is a genus of moths in the family Geometridae. The species within this genus are found in Asia. Little is known about the specific biology and distribution of many Perpetrara species, as they are not widely studied.

The genus Perpetrara was established by William Warren in 1894. The type species for the genus is Perpetrara caeruleata. Like other geometrid moths, adult Perpetrara are characterized by slender bodies and typically large wings relative to their size. The larval stage, or caterpillar, of these moths likely feeds on plant matter, a common trait for the Geometridae family. The precise host plants for Perpetrara species are not extensively documented in readily available literature.

Further research is needed to fully understand the ecological roles, life cycles, and conservation status of moths belonging to the Perpetrara genus. Information regarding their specific geographic ranges and the threats they may face is sparse, highlighting an area for potential future entomological investigation.
