user posted imageScoliopterix libatrix (Linnaeus, 1758) is a medium - sized moth. Butterflies and caterpillars are active at dusk and at night, hiding in secluded places during the day. Caterpillars feed on leaves and stems, and are carriers of agricultural crops. Pupation occurs mainly in the soil, and in summer generations-on the surface of the soil or on plants in a spider cocoon.
The picture was taken in the Astrakhan region.
