La Euphaedra (Euphaedra) cyparissa, ye una especie de Lepidoptera, de la familia Nymphalidae, subfamilia Limenitidinae, tribu Adoliadini, que pertenez al xéneru Euphaedra, subxéneru (Euphaedra).
Euphaedra cyparissa, the true forester, is a butterfly in the family Nymphalidae. It is found in Guinea, Sierra Leone, Liberia, Ivory Coast, Ghana, Nigeria, Cameroon, the Central African Republic and the Democratic Republic of the Congo.[2] The habitat consists of drier forests and open wet forests or the edges of wet forests.
The length of the forewings is 31–33 mm for males and about 40 mm for females. The upperside colour is black and apple green with a delicate yellow sheen, somewhat more prominent on the hindwing median area.[3]
E. cyparissa is distinguished by the black discal spots and the large black submarginal spots on both wings beneath and by having the submarginal spots on the underside of the forewing placed in an irregularly curved line, the spots in cellules 3 and 4 being much nearer to the distal margin; the discal spot in cellule 2 on the forewing beneath is transversely placed and stands before the middle of the cellule. As in the other species the hindwing is green above with broad black marginal band and the forewing at the hindmargin also green at least as far as the cell; the underside of the hindwing is more or less extended gold-yellow or orange-yellow in the middle. - cyparissa Cr.

Adults are attracted to fallen fruit.
