Pericyma vinsonii

Pericyma vinsonii is a moth of the family Erebidae. It is found in Mauritius, La RĂ©union and Madagascar.

It has a wingspan of approx. 34 mm for the males and 41 mm for the females. Their larvae are commonly found on Delonix regia, a Fabaceae but most probably they are polyphage, as the adults can also be found up to altitudes of 1000m were this plant isn't found.
