Erythraella is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae, found at Socotra Island in Yemen.[1] It contains only one species, Erythraella bicuspidata, observed by Zoia in 2012.[2] The genus name comes from the Latin name for the Arabian Sea, "mare Erythraeum". The species name, meaning "double pointed" in Latin, refers to the double point of the apex of the aedeagus.[1]
