Rhodogastria amasis, the tri-coloured tiger moth, is a moth in the family Erebidae.
It is found in Lesotho, Mozambique, South Africa and Zimbabwe.
[1] The larvae feed on Acacia, Calodendrum, Cassia, Cestrum, Clerodendrum, Cotyledon, Passiflora caerulea, Rhus, Senecio, and Tagetes species.
[2] Though they are heavily armed with irritant urticating hairs they are readily eaten by fiscal flycatchers and Cape robin-chats that scrub off their hairs against the ground and swallow the larvae whole.
