Por Chris Grinter, on July 25th, 2011% This Monday I am departing from the usual Arctiinae for something completely different – a microlep! This is a Nepticulidae, Stigmella diffasciae, and it measures in at a whopping 6 mm. I can’t take credit for spreading this moth – all of the nepticulids I have photographed are from the California Academy of Sciences and . → Leia mais: Segunda-feira Traça Gostar disto: Gosto Carregando...

Por Chris Grinter, on July 18th, 2011% I’ll keep the ball rolling with Arctiinae and post a photo today of Ctenucha brunnea. This moth can be common in tall grasses along beaches from San Francisco to LA – although in recent decades the numbers of this moth have been declining with habitat destruction and the invasion of beach grass (Ammophila arenaria).

Like many other day flying species it is brilliantly colored and quite likely aposematic. After all, the host plant is a milkweed and the caterpillar is just as stunning (abaixo).

Ponedjeljak Moljac Chris Grinter, 25. srpnja, 2011 Ovaj ponedjeljak sam odstupio od ustaljene Arctiinae za nešto potpuno drugačije – microlep! To je Nepticulidae, Stigmella diffasciae, i to u mjeri u nevjerojatnih 6 mm. Ja ne mogu preuzeti zasluge za širenje ovog savijača – sve nepticulids sam fotografirali su iz Kalifornije akademije znanosti i širiti Dave Wagner, dok je on bio ovdje za postdoctorate poziciju. U gusjenice mina gornje strane lišća Ceanothus i poznati su samo iz podnožju Sierra Nevade u Kaliforniji.
