Paradrina rebeli

Paradrina rebeli is a moth of the family Noctuidae. The species was first described by Otto Staudinger in 1901. It is endemic to the Canary Islands.[1][2] Some authors consider the genus Paradrina to be a subgenus of Caradrina, hence the species is also known as Caradrina rebeli or Caradrina (Paradrina) rebeli.
