Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Speciesbox

Achaea serva is a species of noctuid moth of the family Erebidae first described by Johan Christian Fabricius in 1775. It is found from the Indo-Australian tropics of India, Sri Lanka, Myanmar, China, Borneo, Hong Kong, Java, the Philippines, the New Hebrides, to Okinawa, many western Micronesian islands and New Guinea and Australia.[1]

Description

This species has a wingspan of 70–82 mm for the males and 62–80 mm for the females.[2] Pale medial band on hindwing is less prominent. The forewing underside is more diffusely marked and less strongly variegated, but has a discal lunule.[3] Caterpillars are brown. First pair of prolegs is atrophied, so they move in a looper fashion. Tail consists of a small pair of horns.[4]

Ecology

Recorded larval food plants include Buchanania, Ipomoea, Diospyros, Rosa, Sapindus, Madhuca, Manilkara, Mimusops, Palaquium, Sideroxylon, Excoecaria agallocha, Ricinus communis and Acacia auriculiformis.[4]
