Eupseudosoma is a genus of moths in the family Erebidae. The genus was erected by Augustus Radcliffe Grote in 1865.[1] The best known and most widespread species is Eupseudosoma involutum, the snowy eupseudosoma, a bright white moth which is found from the southern United States right down to the south of South America. There are a few other species found across the Americas.
