Adaina is a genus of moths in the family Pterophoridae. The genus was erected in 1905 by J. W. Tutt.[1] Several of its species have gall-inducing larvae, such as Adaina primulacea, of which the larvae induce stem galls on Chromolaena odorata,[2] and Adaina microdactyla, which induces stem galls on Eupatorium cannabinum.[3]
