Dysphania is a genus of colourful moths in the family Geometridae. With a typical wingspan of 5–8.5 centimetres (2.0–3.3 in), they are relatively large compared to most members of this family. Most Dysphania are day-flying, but there are also nocturnal species. They are found in northeast Australia, Melanesia, and south, east and southeast Asia.
