Diacrisia is a genus of tiger moths in the family Erebidae. The genus was erected by Jacob Hübner in 1819.[1] Its species can be found in Europe and Asia.

The species of the genera Rhyparia and Rhyparioides were placed in Diacrisia as a result of phylogenetic research published by Rönkä et al. in 2016.[2]
