Current Moth Obsession - Post 3 The family SATURNIIDAE
Luna moth (Actias luna)
Our friends, the Luna Moths are members of the family Saturniidae, which includes the world's largest moths. Saturniids are usually large moths with large feathery antennae that live for only short periods once they reach the adult stage (most of them lack mouths).
To find out more about this family, check out this WIKI article.
