Anaproutia Comitella
''Anaproutia comitella'' is a moth of the Psychidae family. It is found in France, Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Slovenia, Croatia, Hungary, Romania and Bulgaria. The wingspan The wingspan (or just span) of a bird or an airplane is the distance from one wingtip to the other wingtip. For example, the Boeing 777–200 has a wingspan of , and a wandering albatross (''Diomedea exulans'') caught in 1965 had a wingspan ... is about 15 mm for males. Female are wingless. Adults are on wing in May and June. The larvae feed on mosses and lichens and, after overwintering, also on leaves. Larvae can be found from the end of June to the beginning of May. The species overwinters in the larval stage. References Moths described in 1845 Psychidae Moths of Europe {{Tineoidea-stub ...

Moth
Moths are a paraphyletic group of insects that includes all members of the order Lepidoptera that are not butterflies, with moths making up the vast majority of the order. There are thought to be approximately 160,000 species of moth, many of which have yet to be described. Most species of moth are nocturnal, but there are also crepuscular and diurnal species. Differences between butterflies and moths While the butterflies form a monophyletic group, the moths, comprising the rest of the Lepidoptera, do not. Many attempts have been made to group the superfamilies of the Lepidoptera into natural groups, most of which fail because one of the two groups is not monophyletic: Microlepidoptera and Macrolepidoptera, Heterocera and Rhopalocera, Jugatae and Frenatae, Monotrysia and Ditrysia.Scoble, MJ 1995.

Psychidae
The Psychidae (bagworm moths, also simply bagworms or bagmoths) are a family of the Lepidoptera (butterflies and moths). The bagworm family is fairly small, with about 1,350 species described. Bagworm species are found globally, with some, such as the snailcase bagworm (''Apterona helicoidella''), in modern times settling continents where they are not native. Another common name for the Psychidae is "case moths", but this is just as well used for the case-bearers (Coleophoridae). The names refer to the habits of caterpillars of these two families, which build small protective cases in which they can hide. The bagworms belong to the superfamily Tineoidea, which is a basal lineage of the Ditrysia (as is Gelechioidea, which includes case-bearers). This means that the bagworms and case-bearers are only as closely related to each other as either is to butterflies (Rhopalocera). Most bagworms are inoffensive to humans and inconspicuous; some are occasional nuisance pests. However ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
