The Rothschildia species occur in the New World only. They are attractive in all stages and easy to rear. The larvae of forbesi (also known as lebeau) change from striped yellow and black to green, with a strong lateral line separating the underside which is paler green and downy. They are easy to rear on Privet and fast growing in summer temperatures.
