Anisota Virginiensis
''Anisota virginiensis'', the pink-striped oakworm moth, is a species of silk moth of the family Saturniidae. Description The female's wings are purplish red with ochre-yellow. They have thin scales and are almost transparent. The male's wings are purplish brown with a large transparent space in the middle. The female is larger than the male. The wing span is 4.2 to 6.6 centimeters. Habitat The moth can be found across Canada from Nova Scotia to southeastern Manitoba, and in the United States. It lives in deciduous woodlands and suburbs. Biology Females release a pheromone which attracts males that swarm around her like bees. Mating occurs during the morning. It is a rapid process. The male and female stay together for the rest of the day and then the female finds a place to lay eggs, usually under oak leaves. Such mating swarms have been observed at carrion, where host plants may be higher quality due to the influx of nutrients associated with decomposition. The caterpillars ...

Anisota Senatoria
''Anisota senatoria'', the orangestriped oakworm, also known as the orange-tipped oakworm, is a Nearctic moth of the family Saturniidae and subfamily Ceratocampinae. It is one of the more common Saturniids, reaching pest status occasionally in the northern parts of its range. As they are late-season feeders, however, they do little lasting damage to their hosts (most of the energy has been stored already). It is very similar to '' A. finlaysoni'' in southern Ontario and '' A. peigleri'' in the southern US. The species was first described by James Edward Smith in 1797. Range The species lives in eastern North America, from the edge of the Great Plains to the east coast and from southern Ontario to central Georgia, Alabama and eastern Texas. They are found in northern Florida, but are more common in the north. Life cycle There is only one brood a year. Egg Eggs are laid on the underside of leaves in large clusters. They take one to two weeks to hatch. Larva Larvae are gregari ...
