Antherina is a monotypic moth genus in the family Saturniidae erected by William Elford Leach in 1815.

Both larvae and pupae consumed in parts of Madagascar, but not to a great extent.

The larvae feed on oleander, privet, willows, beech, Liquidambar, Crataegus (hawthorns), grapevine, lilac, cherry, laurel, Forsythia, Rhus, Pistacia, apple, pear, plum and peach leaves, but foodplants differ from species to species.

Once they've finished growing they will be as thick as your finger and when they have reached their final days as a caterpillar they will develop a blue dorsal stripe and wander around looking for a place to pupate.
