	Saturniinae The Saturniinae or saturniines are a subfamily of the family Saturniidae. They are commonly known as emperor moths or wild silk moths. They are easily spotted by the eyespots on the upper surface of their wings. Some exhibit realistic eye-like markings, whilst others have adapted the eyespots to form crescent moon or angular shapes or have lost their wing scales to create transparent windows. They are medium to very large moths, with adult wingspans ranging from 7.5 to 15 cm, in some cases even more. They consist of some of the largest sized Lepidoptera, such as the luna moth, atlas moth, and many more. The Saturniinae is an important source of wild silk and human food in many different cultures. The saturniine genera, approximately 169 in number, are divided into four major and one minor ( Micragonini) tribes. The genus '' Adafroptilum'' presently consists of a group of species with undetermined relationships. Adults in the Saturniinae typically live about 5–12 days ...

	Saturnia (moth) ''Saturnia'' is a genus of moths in the family Saturniidae first described by Franz Paula von Schrank in 1802. They are large moths, commonly called emperor moths though this is also used for various close relatives in subfamily Saturniinae. Most are Palearctic, but three species (''S. mendocino'', ''S. walterorum'' and ''S. albofasciata'', commonly known as saturnia moths) occur in the chaparral of California. Species The known species of ''Saturnia'' are: * '' Saturnia albofasciata'' (Johnson, 1938) – white-streaked saturnia (mostly in '' Calosaturnia'') * '' Saturnia atlantica'' Lucas, 1848 * '' Saturnia bieti'' Oberthür, 1886 * '' Saturnia cameronensis'' Lemaire, 1979 * '' Saturnia centralis'' Naumann & Loeffler, 2005 * '' Saturnia cephalariae'' (Romanoff, 1885) (sometimes in ''Eudia'') * '' Saturnia cidosa'' Moore, 1865 * '' Saturnia cognata'' Jordan in Seitz, 1911 * '' Saturnia koreanis'' Brechlin, 2009 * '' Saturnia luctifera'' Jordan in Seitz, 1911 * '' Saturnia m ...

picture info	Saturniidae Saturniidae, commonly known as saturniids, is a family of Lepidoptera with an estimated 2,300 described species. The family contains some of the largest species of moths in the world. Notable members include the emperor moths, royal moths, and giant silk moths. Adults are characterized by large, lobed wings, heavy bodies covered in hair-like scales, and reduced mouthparts. They lack a frenulum, but the hindwings overlap the forewings to produce the effect of an unbroken wing surface.Tuskes PM, Tuttle JP, Collins MM (1996)''The Wild Silk Moths of North America: A Natural History of the Saturniidae of the United States and Canada''. Pages 182-184.Cornell University Press, Ithaca, New York. Saturniids are sometimes brightly colored and often have translucent eyespots or "windows" on their wings. Sexual dimorphism varies by species, but males can generally be distinguished by their larger, broader antennae. Most adults possess wingspans between 1-6 in (2.5–15 cm), but so ...

picture info	MONA Number A MONA number (short for Moths of North America), or Hodges number after Ronald W. Hodges, is part of a numbering system for North American moths found north of Mexico in the Continental United States and Canada, as well as the island of Greenland. Introduced in 1983 by Hodges through the publication of ''Check List of the Lepidoptera of America North of Mexico'', the system began an ongoing numeration process in order to compile a list of the over 12,000 moths of North America north of Mexico. The system numbers moths within the same family close together for identification purposes. For example, the species '' Epimartyria auricrinella'' begins the numbering system at 0001 while '' Epimartyria pardella'' is numbered 0002. The system has become somewhat out of date since its inception for several reasons: # Some numbers no longer exist as the species bearing the number have been reclassified into other species. # Some species have been regrouped into a different family and th ...
