The bright colors displayed by insects to warn predators are called aposematic coloration.
Aposematic coloration refers to the phenomena in which some insect species have developed brilliant colours as a warning signal to possible predators. Aposematic colouring is a type of defensive adaptation in which the organism uses noticeable and frequently brilliant colours to signal its toxicity, unpleasant taste, or danger to prospective predators. These colours act as a warning to predators, deterring them from attempting to devour the creature. In contrast to the visible and warning colouring found in aposematism, Cryptic coloration (camouflage) includes an organism blending into its surroundings to evade discovery by predators or prey.
