Animal Facts:

The Indian Moon Moth (Actias selene) is a breathtaking nocturnal marvel found across Asia, from India to Japan and Sri Lanka. Often referred to as the Indian Luna Moth, it captivates enthusiasts with its delicate beauty and moonlit appearance.

Adult males have a striking appearance with pale green wings, elegant pink tails, and intricate yellow markings. Their large wingspan, which can stretch up to 15 cm, makes them a remarkable sight during their short adult lifespan. Females are slightly duller in color but no less enchanting.

These moths are primarily active at night, adding a mysterious allure to their behavior. Their lifecycle begins with eggs that hatch into tiny red larvae and later transform into bright green caterpillars with spiny tubercles. After feeding on host plants like sweetgum, cherry, and walnut, they spin pale brown cocoons before emerging as adults.

Did you know the Indian Moon Moth doesn't have a mouth as an adult? It doesn’t eat and lives off stored energy for only 7-10 days, just long enough to find a mate and continue its lineage.

Thanks to their ethereal beauty, these moths are beloved by amateur entomologists worldwide. They are often raised from eggs or cocoons, allowing enthusiasts to witness their magical metamorphosis.

Whether admired for their delicate appearance or studied for their unique lifecycle, the Indian Moon Moth is a true wonder of the natural world!

Purchased as a gift for a moth-enthusiast friend and I'm envious of the little creature he will receive. Gorgeously crafted, elegant wings and beautifully soft. I will be seeking to adopt my own soon.
