Observation date: July 09, 2022
Submitted by: Boba
Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: These moths were feeding on Sticky Asphodel flowers. Each time they spent 15 to 30 minutes on each plant. I would like to know if these are females. And the lowest taxon. Lots of geometrid caterpillars feed on the seeds of this plant and then pupate in the seed casings.
