Clearwing Moth
The Clearwing Moth is a unique insect belonging to the family Sesiidae. Unlike typical moths, it has transparent wings that resemble those of a hummingbird, allowing it to blend in with its surroundings. These moths are often mistaken for bees or wasps due to their similar size and coloration.
Clearwing Moths are primarily active during the day and are attracted to flowers for nectar. They play a role in pollination, helping plants reproduce. Their larvae typically feed on the wood of various trees and shrubs, making them an important part of their ecosystem.
