A Brief Introduction:
Andraca was regarded as a genus in Bombycidae according to the adult morphology before, however, recent molecular evidence supported it to be a clade of Endromidae. A. theae is one of the two Andraca species in Taiwan and could be easily identified by the ground colour of forewing and hindwing and white marking near the middle position of PML.
