Spirama
''Spirama'' is a genus of moths in the Erebidae family. ==Defensive display==
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 slightly opened mouth. This pattern is more clearly discernible in females. It may intimidate potential predators and dissuade them from attacking.〔John L. Capinera, ''Encyclopedia of Entomology,'' Volume 4, p. 1174〕
