Pierella is a butterfly genus from the subfamily Satyrinae in the family Nymphalidae found from Mexico through Central America to South America. The species of Pierella have larger hindwings than forewings, unique among butterflies. The oval green flash on the forewing is also unique. It is caused by diffraction, the wing scales forming a diffraction grating. Their caterpillars have been found on the host plants Heliconia and Calathea.

  • Pierella é um gênero de borboletas neotropicais da família Nymphalidae e subfamília Satyrinae, proposto por Herrich-Schäffer no ano de 1865. A espécie típica para este gênero é Pierella nereis, do sudeste do Brasil. Adrian Hoskins cita que as espécies do gênero Pierella se caracterizam por seu voo fugaz, se escondendo um pouco acima da superfície do solo na escuridão do sub-bosque da floresta; voando baixo, muitas vezes, em trilhas e evitando a luz do sol, geralmente aparecendo na aurora ou crepúsculo, mas também se escondendo profundamente na vegetação rasteira em outras horas do dia. As lagartas de algumas espécies (como P. luna e P. helvina) foram encontradas em plantas monocotiledôneas dos gêneros Helicônia e Calathea. (pt)
