Harvester, Feniseca tarquinius
<LEP65>
This is a relative of the coppers with a unique life history. Its caterpillars are predators of certain
woolly aphids. The adults may visit
the aphids also for honeydew. The
irregular, interior area of the forewings and the lower halves of the
hindwings are pumpkin orange: the rest is black, with thin white fringes. |
