Bebearia

***Bebearia*** er en artsrik slekt av til dels meget fargerike sommerfugler som tilhører underfamilien Limenitidinae i den store familien flikvinger (Nymphalidae). Gruppen består for det meste av store, kraftige arter. De er gode flygere og seiler gjerne på stive vinger. Disse artene er tropiske og lever i Afrika.

## Utseende
Store, bredvingede, fargerike sommerfugler. Oversiden av vingen er gjerne farget i metallisk blått eller grønt, skarpt rødt eller oransje, eller den er mørkt brunlig. Artene ligner mye på *[[Euphaedra]]-*artene, men kan vanligvis kjenkes på at forvingenes spiss er litt tilspisset, de er mer avrundet hos *Euphaedra*. Undersiden er mer eller mindre kamufalsjefarget, men kan også ha et metallisk skinn.

## Levevis
I alle fall en del av artene har larver som lever på palmer, eller på familiene Marantaceae, Apocyanaceae og Sapotaceae. Disse sommerfuglene lever i regnskog, men også i tørrere skogtyper. De voksne sommerfuglene suger gjerne til seg væske fra råtnende frukt.

## Utbredelse
Gruppen er utbredt i tropisk Afrika.
