Euploea
''Euploea'' is a genus of milkweed butterflies. The species are generally dark in coloration, often quite blackish, for which reason they are commonly called crows. As usual for their subfamily, they are poisonous due to feeding on milkweeds and other toxic plants as caterpillars. The latter are aposematically colored to warn off predators from eating them, and the adult butterflies are often mimicked by unrelated species which are not or less poisonous.

Euploea Alcathoe
''Euploea alcathoe'', commonly known as the no-brand crow, Eichhorn's crow or striped black crow, is a common butterfly found from India to Borneo, and in the Moluccas, New Guinea and Australia. It belongs to the crows and tigers subfamily of the Nymphalidae (brushfooted butterflies). The butterflies keep to within of the ground and they can be found in patches of sun underneath the forest canopy where they alight on understory leaves and small twigs. The larvae feed on ''Nerium indicum'', ''Nerium oleander'', '' Mandevilla'', ''Asclepias'', '' Hoya australis'', ''Marsdenia australis'', '' Ficus platypoda'', '' Gymnanthera oblonga'' and '' Ficus obliqua'' in Australia. The larvae of the endangered Gove subspecies, ''Euploea alcathoe enastri'', also feed on the vines of ''Parsonsia alboflavescens'', and '' Tylophora benthamii''. ''Euploea alcathoe'' adults are most common in the monsoonal wet season between December and May in Australia, and there may be several generations ov ...

Euploea Core
File:Euploea core at thachangad.jpg ''Euploea core'', the common crow, is a common butterfly found in South Asia to Australia. In India it is also sometimes referred to as the common Indian crow, and in Australia as the Australian crow. It belongs to the crows and tigers subfamily Danainae (tribe Danaini). ''E. core'' is a glossy-black, medium-sized butterfly with rows of white spots on the margins of its wings. ''E. core'' is a slow, steady flier. Due to its unpalatability it is usually observed gliding through the air with a minimum of effort. As caterpillars, this species sequesters toxins from its food plant which are passed on from larva to pupa to the adult. While feeding, it is a very bold butterfly, taking a long time at each bunch of flowers. It can also be found mud-puddling with others of its species and often in mixed groups. The males of this species visit plants like ''Crotalaria'' and ''Heliotropium'' to replenish pheromone stocks which are used to attract a femal ...
