Among the creatures in nature, there is such a moth. Its name is Angel Long-tailed Silkworm Moth. They have a long "tail" full of fairy flavor, which grows at the end of their hind wings and looks like the slender tail of a phoenix. So what are its characteristics and living habits? The following interesting historical Bian Xiao will give you a detailed introduction. Let's have a look!

The shape of the angel long-tailed silkworm moth is very similar to that of the crape myrtle green-tailed silkworm moth. Their wings are all yellow-green tulle-like, with yellow dots in the center of the wings. But the most prominent feature of the angel long-tailed silkworm moth is that there is an extremely slender "tail" at the end of its hind wing, which looks like a ribbon hanging around the fairy's waist. After unfolding, it can reach the length of 1 1 cm, which is similar to many butterflies with tail processes.

Angel long-tailed silkworm moth will not do much harm to trees, unlike green-tailed silkworm moth, which likes to eat leaves of various fruit trees or economic trees. The angel long-tailed silkworm moth only likes to eat the leaves of pine trees, especially the European black pine and the Nordic Korean pine. In the larval stage, it likes the leaves of pine plants best, but its number is relatively small, so the leaves will not be seriously hurt.

The angel-tailed silkworm moth originally belongs to a rare species in southwest China, but it is only distributed in southern Vietnam and Myanmar abroad, so individuals can only be found occasionally in Guangxi or Hainan and Guizhou, and because it is very similar to the angel-tailed silkworm moth, people often mistake it for the angel-tailed silkworm moth. In fact, silkworm moths with long tails are rare.

In fact, the long-tailed silkworm moth in nature has many colors. In addition to the green angel long-tailed silkworm moth, there is also a colorful long-tailed silkworm moth. Its wings are mainly composed of yellow and red. When swaying in the sun, it looks like a fairy in a colorful long skirt, which makes people sigh the magic of the creator, and the colorful long-tailed silkworm moth's tail is as beautiful as morning glory.
