Eurema is a widespread genus of grass yellow butterflies in the family Pieridae. A butterfly is an Insect of the order Lepidoptera. Like all Lepidoptera butterflies are notable for their unusual life cycle with a The Pieridae are a large family of butterflies with about 76 genera containing approximately 1100 species mostly from tropical Africa and Asia Species range from Asia, Africa, Australia, and Oceania, to the New World. The type species is the North American Virginia grass yellow.

There are over 70 species in the genus, but more than 300 names have been applied to them. Some species, such as the common African grass yellow, E. hecuba, have over 80 synonyms. The genus itself has over 15 junior generic synonyms. This is the price of being a widespread taxon, as well as a zoogeographical problem.
