Glover's silkmoth, Hyalophora gloveri (Strecker) (Lepidoptera: Saturniidae), new to British Columbia
Two rather common species of giant silkrnoths of the subfamily Satumiinae (Lepidoptera: Satumiidae) occur in southern British Columbia. Both species, the Polyphemus Moth (Antheraea polyphemus [Cramer]) and the Ceanothus Silkrnoth (Hyalophora euryalis [Bois-duvall) are large and spectacular, and evok...
