Zygaeninae

The Zygaeninae are a subfamily of the Zygaenidae family of moths. These are day-flying moths. Species of the genus Zygaena are native to the West Palearctic, while the genus Reissita is found on the Arabian Peninsula. They are able to biosynthesise hydrogen cyanide, and their bright patterns are warning colours to potential predators.

Zutulba namaqua, a genus of moths of the family Zygaenidae, are found in temperate regions. Majority of the tropical species, commonly called foresters moths, have bright prominent spots containing hydrogen cyanide for warning predators. These toxins allow the moths to have mimicry.

Praezygaena is a genus of moths in the family Zygaenidae. The genus was established as a subgenus of Epizygaena.
