World of Insects || #spring_moths
Some important facts to know ✌️
#Moths are a group of #insects that includes all members of the order #Lepidoptera that are not butterflies.
#Moths make up the vast majority of the order #lepidoptera . There are approximately 160,000 species of moth, many of which have yet to be described.
Most species of moth are #nocturnal, although there are also #crepuscular and #diurnal species.
While the butterflies form a monophyletic group, the moths, comprising the rest of the Lepidoptera, do not.
Moths, like butterflies, bees and other more popularly recognized #pollinating_insects, serve an essential role as #pollinators for many flowering plants, including species that bees do not visit.
Nocturnal moths fly from flower to flower to feed on nectar during the night much as their diurnal relatives do during the day.
Moths frequently appear to circle artificial lights, although the reason for this behavior (positive #phototaxis) is not yet clearly understood.
