Actias dulcinea x luna

Hello, I have one female A. dulcinea cocoon left and no dulcinea males for it, but frequently encounter wild male luna at my light.

How would I go about pairing a female dulcinea and a male luna? Would they pair on their own or will handpairing be needed?

Regards,

Jacob Hoopes

My light traps are just in my backyard, in North Carolina, USA.

I see A. luna frequently.

Hello Jacob,

I would first try to have them mate themselves and if that is unsuccessful, by hand mating. Where do you place your light traps?

Best regards

Emil
