Night life Puriri Moth Print

The short-lived (2 days), large (15cm wing span), verdant green native moth is a sight to behold. After living for 7 years as a caterpillar they pupate into a moth so as to find a mate, and lay eggs before dying. Puriri trees are one of the native trees that host the caterpillar and eventually fall victim to the moth consumptions of the tree trunk. Artist Holly Roach.
