Heliconius es un género de insectos lepidópteros de la familia Nymphalidae. Se distribuye por los trópicos y subtrópicos del Nuevo Mundo. Muchas especies presentan mimetismo con otras especies del mismo género. Por eso han sido objeto de estudios evolutivos, especialmente estudios de mimetismo batesiano y mülleriano.
