Narrative

Noctuidae Family consists of thousands and thousands of species of moths, ranging in size from small to medium, and are found throughout the world. Although most of them are small, a few genera such as Catocala and Thysania reach good size and have colorful rear wings. Any light on a warm night almost anywhere in the world will produce several different species of these small brown moths. They are characterized by long narrow antennae and usually land with their rear wings hidden from view by their front wings which are usually more dull in color.
