おもしろい事実

Its name, 'venata,' comes from Latin for 'veined,' referring to its prominent wing veins.

Many moths use their long, coiled proboscis like a straw to sip nectar from flowers at night.

Moth wings are covered in tiny, dust-like scales that create their amazing colors and patterns.

Some moths, like this one, only live as adults for a short time, just long enough to lay eggs!
