| | | | Moths | Macrolepidoptera can be divided into butterflies and moths. Moths do not constitute a zoological unit. Some examples of species of moths are: Arctiidae, Endromidae, owlet moths (Noctuidae), Cymatophoridae, picture-winged leaf moths (Thyrididae), eggars, snout moths or lappet moths (Lasiocampidae), Lemoniidae, saturniids (Saturniidae), hook-tips (Drepanidae), Thaumetopoeidae, Lymantriidae, hawk moths, sphinx moths and hornworms (Sphingidae), burnet or forester moths (Zygaenidae), and Notodontidae.
Moths are not always nocturnal but they only fly in sunny weather. Most moths are inconspicuous and dully coloured and this allows them a kind of camouflage when they rest in the daytime. Their wing colouration often mimics the appearance of their roost (tree bark, dry leaves). | | |
