Pachycnemia
hippocastanaria aka Horse Chestnut
moth
EN
I found two caterpillars of this species in Erica sp, whose I fed on, during the growth. Although the Latin and English name is about horse Chestnut, it doesn’t feed on it.
They are very common in Erica sp. , however I’ve never seen the adult flying or atracted to light.
To pupate, the larvae buried itself.
Wingspan: 28-33mm

Encontrei duas lagartas desta espécie em Erica sp. , na qual alimentei durante todo o seu desenvolvimento. São bastante comuns en Erica sp. , mas o adulto nunca tinha visto.
Para pupar, a larva enterra-se.
Envergadura: 28-33 mm
