You guy's are adding fuel to the fire. The last thing we need is a long post with someone starting to argue that they are right, and everyone is wrong. Bug are bugs., no matter what the taxa is. Carpenter worms are cool moths I have to say. We only have one in the u.s. that I know of, and a couple of hepialids.

We actually have a decent diversity of Hepialidae and Cossidae in the US - although not nearly as impressive as the subtropical genera! Moth Photo Group - has a good library of Hepialidae photos starting at 0018. Then see the bottom of this page for our decent diversity of Cossidae. |

I agree with earlier posts..Vanessa gonerilla is really beautiful . I got this one at a fair here in U.K. a couple of years ago..it seems that a few people here are now breeding it. Sad to hear it's on the decline in New Zealand Attachments:

It seems Cossidae are rarely mentioned as being collected in the US. Does anyone here collect them?   t seems to me that females are much more common than males, at least they come to light more often. Prionoxystus robiniae |

I Occasionally get the Cossid Endoxyla encalypti at my light trap here in Far North Queensland. An ancient looking insect.

I cannot remember who, but I sold a Bait Trap to a guy in Christ Church(?) New Zealand. Several weeks or so later he ordered six more? I believe those are some of the species he wanted. There were also some large Erebidae moths he wanted. I think he has 10 or 12 bait traps by now.
