Hamodes propitia is a moth in the family Erebidae first described by Félix Édouard Guérin-Méneville in 1831.[1][2][3] It is found in the north-eastern Himalayas, Myanmar, Thailand, Borneo, Sumatra, Taiwan, from the Philippines east to Queensland, the Carolines (Palau) and the Solomon Islands.[4]
There is sexual dimorphism in adults. Males are yellow with diffuse blackish markings, and females are yellowish olive-brown with uniform shading.
The larvae feed on Dalbergia species. They have a grey body with black and white speckling and a greyish black head. Pupation takes place in a folded leaf in a pupa with a heavy powdery bloom.
