Spirama is a genus of moths in the family Erebidae first described by Achille Guenée in 1852.
Thorax and abdomen smoothly clothed with hair.
Hindwings with vein 5 from the lower angle of the cell, which is rather short.
[2] Some of the species, such as S. helicina, S. indenta, S. recessa, S. remota and S. sumbana, have a pattern on the wings that looks like the frontal view of the face of a snake with a slightly opened mouth.
It may intimidate potential predators and dissuade them from attacking.
