Adorned with a cloak of fine hairs, pale eggar flutters predominantly during twilight hours. Its coloration is subtly calibrated for camouflage, merging seamlessly with the autumnal foliage it frequents. The early life stages are marked by voracious leaf consumption, yet emerging into maturity, the diet transitions remarkably, as adults lack functional mouthparts, relying on reserves accumulated during their larval phase for sustenance.

Wrapped within a cocoon of silken threads, small eggar undergoes a remarkable transformation, emerging as a moth with a distinctive wing pattern. As a caterpillar, it consumes deciduous leaves, vital for surviving winters in a hibernacula. In contrast, the adult is known for its short-lived nocturnal activity, relying on fat reserves as it seeks mates, foregoing feeding altogether.

The larval stage of eastern eggar boasts a remarkable adaptation for overwintering – the creation of a tough, silk hibernaculum that shields against freezing temperatures. This early life cocoon is not found in all Lepidoptera. As adults, these creatures exhibit pronounced sexual dimorphism; males have feathery antennae used to detect pheromones, an attribute that females lack. The species is nocturnal, with activity patterns tightly linked to the lunar cycle, and predominantly feeds on the leaves of deciduous trees during its larval phase.

The species is found in tropical Africa.

Kunugia divaricata is a butterfly from the spinner family (Lasiocampidae). The scientific name of the species was first validly published in 1884 by Moore.

Adorned with a downy coat, kunugia brunnea undergoes a remarkable transformation from a voracious leaf-eater in its larval stage to an ephemeral beauty with rich brown wings dappled with eye-catching patterns. As an adult, it navigates the night, relying on nuanced wing colorations to blend seamlessly into the wooded habitats it calls home, while its larval form is known for its communal living in silken tents that are constructed with instinctual precision.

The wingspan is 1.2–1.8 in.

Lebeda nobilis is a butterfly from the spinner family (Lasiocampidae). The scientific name of the species was first validly published in 1855 by Walker.
