Eublemma amabilis is a moth of the family Noctuidae first described by Saalmüller in 1891. [1] It is found in India, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka. [2] [3]
The adult is white pinkish. Eggs are round and grey white. First instars are creamy whitish with a broad flat head. [4]
It is a major pest on Kerria lacca. [5] The caterpillar enters the lac insect through one of the openings in the test or by tunnelling a hole through the incrustation. Pupa obtect adecticous and dark brown. [6]
