Template:Short description Template:Speciesbox Catocala fulminea, the yellow bands underwing, is a moth of the family Erebidae. The species was first described by Giovanni Antonio Scopoli in his 1763 Entomologia Carniolica.[1] It is found in central and southern Europe, east Asia and Siberia. The xarippe lineage has been proposed to be a distinct and valid species in its own right, instead of being only subspecifically distinct.
The wingspan is 44–52 mm.
The larvae feed on Prunus, Crataegus, pears, and oaks.
