Happy National Moth Week! Moths are one of many groups of insects that go through complete metamorphosis, meaning they go through 4 stages in their journey from egg to adult. Our sphinx moths start as tiny eggs, less than 2mm in diameter! After hatching, they eat as much as possible and grow to 70mm long. Once they reach their final size, they burrow into the ground to pupate and emerge as adult moths after approximately 14 days. While the caterpillars of all species of sphinx moths might be con

National Moth Week is featuring the beautiful work of German artist Clemens Söllner marquetry. Clemens became fascinated with these creatures by observing the moths themselves. For him, the appeal lies in “recognizing the beautiful patterns on their wings, their furry bodies. Each species looks different and they are so beautifully silent,” an experience he described as “totally amazed.” His artistic recreations of their perfectly camouflaged bodies using the marquetry technique (inlaying wood v

For National Moth Week, we’d like to share with you the unusual Hemaris thysbe, or Hummingbird moth (clearwing). At first sight, it’s easy to confuse this moth with a small hummingbird. And unlike most moths, the clearwing hummingbird moth is most active during the day. They absolutely love this bottlebrush buckeye. It’s always a treat to find one! #NationalMothWeek | Yew Dell Botanical Gardens

A beautiful Luna moth greeted me this morning — how appropriate for National Moth Week @mothweek! Seeing a North American Luna Moth (Actias luna) is rare due to its brief adult stage (7-10 days) & nocturnal flying times. Sadly, this one probably got confused by a bright yard light. Luna moths are part of the subfamily Saturniinae — the giant silk moths group. During its short adult life, these moths don’t eat, instead focusing on mating while surviving off fat stores from their caterpillar stage

It’s National Moth Week! To celebrate, here are two different angles of luna moths as they painstakingly cut their way out of the silk cocoons they built as caterpillars and overwintered in as pupae! Adult luna moths (Actias luna) have a unique way of emerging from their cocoons using sharp “spurs” at the base of their wings. Most of their giant silk moth cousins rely on an enzyme known as cocoonase, which they secrete in order to melt perfect escape holes from their cocoons. Luna moths use this
