Estigmene acrea
These cute and adorable insects were bred by me for a breeding project.They have orange and white patterns.When they are disturbed they show there orange abdomen and the animals run away. They can feed on many species of low growing plants and weeds like clover dandelion and Henbit deadnettle that is very common in This area.
Grasslands and semi-urban and desert areas where weeds are adbundent.
Male and female
