Hyantis is a genus of nymphalid butterfly in the group morphinae. They resemble Taenaris as they mimic them. Hyantis consists of one species, Hyantis hodeva. Due to recent molecular analysis (Peña et. al) and differences in both wing venation structure and larval morphology, It is clear that Hyantis is different from the other members of the Amathusiini, however its placement in Elymniini is uncertain.
