Arctia dido is a moth of the family Erebidae. It was described by M. Wagner in 1841. It is found in Algeria.[1]
The larvae feed on Taraxacum species.
This species, along with the others of the genus Atlantarctia, was moved to Arctia as a result of phylogenetic research published by Rönkä et al. in 2016.[2]
