Pullichroma is a monotypic moth genus in the family Geometridae erected by Jeremy Daniel Holloway in 1996. Its only species, Pullichroma pullicosta, was first described by Louis Beethoven Prout in 1931. It is found in Brunei, Indonesia (Sulawesi, Sumatra) and the Philippines.[1]
The wings are fairly uniformly straw coloured with only a faint trace of olive green and with a well-defined dark brown costa.
