Euclidia triquetra is a moth in the family Erebidae, first described by Michael Denis and Ignaz Schiffermuller in 1775. It is found in south-eastern Europe, as well as in Kazakhstan, Anatolia, and eastern Siberia as far as the Pacific Ocean, in warm, dry habitats. Its wingspan measures 24 to 30 millimeters, and adults fly in two generations a year, from mid-April to June and again from late July to August, active during the day. The larvae feed on various plants in the pea family Fabaceae, including Astragalus and Onobrychis species.
