Chloridea is a genus of owlet moths in the family Noctuidae. There are at least three described species in Chloridea.[1][2]

The species of Chloridea were formerly members of the genus Heliothis, but were moved to Chloridea when it was reinstated as valid genus as a result of research published in 2013.[2][3]
