Clifden Nonpareil Catocala fraxini 15 Eggs

Clifden Nonpareil Catocala fraxini 15 eggs

This species is now almost extinct in Britain. We are offering European stock of this fine moth, the largest of all Underwings and remarkable for its BLUE hindwings. Store the eggs refrigerated until May. The young larvae are immensely active and care must be taken when transferring them to fooplant on hatching, because they can tangle themselves up if you try to move more than one at a time! Feed on Aspen and other Poplars. The larvae are the larges of this genus and very satisfying to rear. Moths emerge in late summer, laying eggs that overwinter. Only a few available now.
