	Nyctemera ''Nyctemera'' is a genus of tiger moths in the family Erebidae first described by Jacob Hübner in 1820. The genus includes the species ''Nyctemera annulata'' and ''Nyctemera amica'', which are closely related and are able to interbreed. Description They are medium-sized moths, the adults having a wingspan of . The wings are usually dark with lighter patches, while the body is often aposematically coloured to discourage birds and other visual predators from eating them. Palpi porrectly upturned. Antennae bipectinate in both sexes, where branches short in females. Forewing with vein 3 from before the angle of cell, vein 5 from above it and vein 6 from upper angle. Vein 7 and 10 from short areole which is formed by the anastomosis of veins 8 and 9. Hindwings with vein 3 from before end of cell and vein 5 from angle or from above it. Veins 6 and 7 stalked or from upper angle. Vein 8 from before middle of all. Ecology The slow-flying moths can often be seen feeding at flowers; it i ...
