Brindled Beauty Lycia hirtaria

Not often available. Larvae ready from May.

Once a common Geometer, now quite a find! The larvae are stick-like "loopers" quite prettily decorated and very active when not resting to resemble a twig.

The larvae accept a wide variety of tree foliage which includes, Oak, Birch, Lime, Hawthorh, Willows, Sallows, Alder and Cherry. 

Pupation is underground, where they rest for the winter.  The moths fly in late winter and springtime.
