Hi Pierre,

Actias Selene foodplantRegards
RudiPS: or that: Was frisst Actias selene?
-
Hi Rudi, is not Selene but Sinensis.. never reported they eat the same foodplant !?
-
Ups...
I am sorry, my mistake!
-
And of course.. I have gunnii often its not the best plant for her....
No worries -
I've found that one person's experience is not necessarily gong to be the experience I have, I've had a number of species simply refuse
purported alternate food plants, it's just one of those things about animals, and it is frustrating, especially when person after
person will claim, the species will accept "what's it trees" and your caterpillars either refuse altogether or eat for a couple days and expire. -
Thanks for your reply..we have a large community here so I do to ask... of course it’s like that and I hear well your point of view.
I am not an expert but never had this kind of problem...
So maybe better with next generation -
Hello Pierre,
Maybe try to pm ArGeNtUm ? He seems to be great in breeding Actias spp.
Best wishes, -
I just read from Alexandre Laberge from Canada on Facebook that Tsuga canadensis is accepted foodplant for A.sinesis ! Look his pic ![Blockierte Grafik: https://scontent-ams4-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/p720x720/74320476_716762332140878_8198015626489364480_o.jpg?_nc_cat=106&_nc_ohc=Jt6J_03811AAQksU7xNgUlylhllL2FcmE_P-1iXGPdWk5f0pSmFOPik9w&_nc_ht=scontent-ams4-1.xx&oh=f48dadcb353951679ef22877c6e7cc9e&oe=5E84BF6E]
