Ozamia Clarefacta
''Ozamia clarefacta'' is a species of snout moth in the genus ''Ozamia''. It was described by Harrison Gray Dyar Jr. in 1919. It is found in Texas and Mexico The forewings are gray with darker markings and the hindwings are pearly white with a narrow dark costal line. There are up to five generations per year. The larvae feed on ''Opuntia'' species, including ''Opuntia lindheimeri'' and '' Opuntia cacanapa''. They feed on the flowers and fruit of the host plant. Young larvae of the first generation are somewhat white and later turn pink or wine colored and become dull black in the last instars. Larvae of the other generations remain a light pink and do not turn dark when full grown. Pupation takes place in a loose cocoon among rubbish and soil, or occasionally in dead flower heads.

For example, the Boeing 777–200 has a wingspan of , and a wandering albatross (''Diomedea exulans'') caught in 1965 had a wingspan of ... is 27–30 mm. The forewings are grey with a clear-yellow inner area and the hindwings are white. The larvae feed on '' Cereus validus'' and '' Opuntia quimilo''. They feed on the fruit of their host plant. On ''Cereus validus'', the young larvae enter the fruit near the base and tunnel into the seed cavity. Later, they attack the fleshy portions, and the fruit dries up. On ''Opuntia quimilo'' the larvae occur in the flowers and the crown of the fruit. The larvae are olive green. They have been recorded in February, April, June, August and November. References ...

Sir George Francis Hampson, 10th Baronet (14 January 1860 – 15 October 1936) was an English entomologist. Hampson studied at Charterhouse School and Exeter College, Oxford. He travelled to India to become a tea-planter in the Nilgiri Hills of the Madras presidency (now Tamil Nadu), where he became interested in moths and butterflies. When he returned to England he became a voluntary worker at the Natural History Museum, where he wrote ''The Lepidoptera of the Nilgiri District'' (1891) and ''The Lepidoptera Heterocera of Ceylon'' (1893) as parts 8 and 9 of ''Illustrations of Typical Specimens of Lepidoptera Heterocera of the British Museum''. He then commenced work on ''The Fauna of British India, Including Ceylon and Burma: Moths'' (four volumes, 1892–1896). Albert C. L. G.
