I have reared Attacus atlas on Rhododendron hirsutum ...a very good hostplant!
-
The place is near a river and Galium is very common here - prealpi dolomitiche.

during una pausa al lavoro ho witnessed a M.stellatarum laying eggs on Ligustrum; the moth was selecting carefully the leaves...
-
Canna indica works well,even for laying eggs. Best is to let the caterpillars on living potted plants.
-
- I let Caligo females free to fly in the room and after a while they alight on the leaves...

The best way is to leave them on a potted plant;caterpillars use to return along the leaf nerves after eating and they won't go away

I don't like to be considered a deceiver or a greedy seller. I'm an honest breeder-never offered cocoons 15€ each!
Many times i buy and sometimes i have eggs to sell and if i buy eggs from imported cocoons i consider them F0.
But don't worry,the next offer will be F40..keep calm everyone -
It is a member of Dactyloceras genus
(Brahmaeidae)...maybe nebulosa? -
Thank you Niklas! I received eggs as C.memnon but this female (15cm) is too blu...
-
What Caligo is this imago?C.memnom or eurilochus? Ex ovo...

Hi Kees,
In my experience if you keep caterpillars in terrarium never spray them!
