Lebeau's Silk Moth, Rothschildia lebeau

A dream species of mine! I am so happy I got to see them in person. Rothschildia silkmoths are so neat and they can get HUGE! They are the New World counterpart to Attacus Atlas moths, which live in Asia.

los colibríes son una especie originaria de muchos lugares entre los cuales están las sabanas y los bosques lluviosos un dato interesante es que son las únicas aves que pueden volar hacia atrás y cuando vuelan sus alas forman un ocho.

oruguise and obsidiala

based on Rothschildia Orizaba, a silkmoth also known as the four mirrors moth due to the 4 arrow like transparent spots on its wings, this species is known in almost the entirety of latin america.

the second inspiration is Itzpapálotl, known as the obsidian butterfly and main godess of the chichimeca, she was a godess of death and regeneration who wore clothes with obsidian daggers and her main myth is about her hiding as part of a court until a war where she took down 400 soldier before being taken down herself and turning into a star

Rothschildia jacobaeae

[magpiejay1234]

Relooking the Lilore (to quote no1mlbhater), apparently there is only one butterfly species with female-on-female sexual behavior, the common acraea, where the female of the species agressively combat over males.

This also makes them one of the few insect species that have female-on-female interaction.

And another interesting thing, it seems female butterflies in the wild about double the lifespan of males, though they often die shortly after laying eggs, so this may be inverted in captivity.

****

Some cocoons may remain dormant for several years, though I can't see the record holder (apparently some Rothschildia species remain dormant for 5 years, but I'm pretty sure there are species that remain dormant for even longer).

Even then, an adult butterfly does not live for long. Brimstone butterflies have the record of living for 13 months, and obviously migratory species like Monarch butterflies live for several months.

(I already went over most of these stuff before, but this post is more complete.)

Rothschildia equatorialis - 15 uova

La più grande specie del genere Rothschildia, che comprende splendide falene diffuse nell’America centro-meridionale. I bruchi si cibano di Ligustro ma si citano in letteratura anche i Prunus da frutto (es. Ciliegio). Possono esserci più generazioni all’anno (nelle aree di origine gli sfarfallamenti sono legati alla stagione delle piogge) ma in inverno è possibile che i bozzoli formati in autunno…

@fluffy-moth​ submitted: Today I bring in for submission 2 friends, from [removed] (please remove location)

First one is a big ol caterpillar, sporting some very fashionable stripes and spiky blue dots.

Second one is this very grubby looking fella, lightly covered in sawdust for some reason. Got a good pair of chompers this one.

(I poked it a little bit)

I'd love to be able to identify them myself some time, could you share what type of guides you use to do so?

Thank you for all the help, here's a bonus picture of, I believe, some lacewing eggs laid on my window! (I guess with my white curtains drawn theyre pretty well hidden?)

Oh no! Looks like the lacewing eggs photo didn’t attach. Tragic. But I LOVE that tubby caterpillar, what a great little friend. That beautiful pal is a Rothchild’s Atlas moth, Rothschildia jacobaeae. Adults are gorgeous and huge!

Nice :) Photo by adrianbraidotti

The grubby pal is a beetle larva. Probably a click beetle, I think.

Anyhoo if I don’t know an ID offhand, I use inaturalist.org/observations :)
