Thriambus
- Thriambus (genus) (Fennah, 1964) is a genus of Delphacidae. Culex thriambus is a species of the genus Culex.
A thriambus (also spelled thriamb, thriambas, or thriambos; Greek θρίαμβος) is a hymn to Dionysus, sung in processions in his honour, and at the same time an epithet of the god himself, according to Diodorus (4.5.2):
Thriambus is a name that has been given him, they say, because he was the first of those of whom we have a record to have celebrated a triumph (thriambos) upon entering his native land after his campaign, this having been done when he returned from India with great booty.
