Madagascan sunset moth
Madagascan sunset moth
As its name suggests, the madagascan sunset moth is native to Madagascar, but it's famous worldwide and highly sought by collectors. Known for its stunning coloration, the bright colors of the madagascan sunset moth actually serve as a warning to predators that the species is toxic when consumed. This day-flying moth undergoes mass seasonal migrations across Madagascar in search of its host plants - the species of the Omphalea genus.
Urapteroides astheniata
Urapteroides astheniata
Adorned with delicate wings, urapteroides astheniata graces the nocturnal canopy with a striking palette that serves as camouflage amidst foliage. This creature undergoes a dramatic transformation from a voracious leaf-munching caterpillar to a poised adult that sips nectar against the twilight sky. Its larvae stage reveals a unique adaptation: mimicking twigs for defense. As an adult, urapteroides astheniata displays a remarkable aptitude for rapid, agile flight, evading potential predators under the cover of night.

Callizzia amorata, the gray scoopwing moth, is a species of swallowtail moth of the family Uraniidae and is found in North America.
Epiplema arcuata
Epiplema arcuata
Adorned with a striking mosaic of colors across their wings, epiplema arcuata exhibits a nocturnal lifestyle, taking to the skies primarily after dusk. Their caterpillar stage feeds selectively on Urticaceae plant species, where the larval form is specialized for specific foliage, which later as adults, they pollinate at night, playing a subtle yet crucial role in their ecosystem.
Grey swallowtail moth
Grey swallowtail moth
Its wingspan is 4 - 5 cm. Head, thorax, and abdomen white with a fuscous tinge. Wings white, closely striated with fuscous; somewhat ill-defined antemedial, medial, and postmedial fuscous oblique bands; a fine marginal line and black spot at base of tail of hindwing. Underside white or fuscous.
Acropteris leptaliata
Acropteris leptaliata
With wings that resemble a leaf, acropteris leptaliata displays a remarkable form of mimicry, ingeniously camouflaging into the foliage of its forest habitat. During its larval stage, this species is known to feed on a variety of host plants, enabling a wide distribution due to the larvae's adaptability in diet. As they transform into adults, their diet shifts drastically, and these creatures are seldom seen due to their primarily nocturnal nature.
Acropteris iphiata
Acropteris iphiata
Acropteris iphiata is a species of moth of the family Uraniidae first described by Achille Guenée in 1857. It is found in Japan, China and Korea. The wingspan is 25–35 mm. The larvae feed on Cynanchum, Metaplexis and Tylophora species.
