 FNZ 30 - Hepialidae (Lepidoptera) - Introduction
The puriri moth, Aenetus virescens (Doubleday), is not only our largest moth species (females can exceed 140 mm wingspan) but is abundant in several North Island cities and towns.
Despite their abundance (Dumbletonius, Wiseana) or huge size (Aenetus), their presence in lowland sites, their regular periodic adult emergences (flights), and their attraction to light, it is curious that no Hepialidae were brought to England from New Zealand by naturalists on Cook's voyages.
Upon each visit, long periods were spent anchored close to shore in Queen Charlotte Sound (SD) during the flight season of Dumbletonius and Wiseana, and again, Cook's survey of Dusky Sound (FD) took place during the flight season of the large, robust Aoraia species.

 News from the farm in Diggers Valley, for the week beginning 5 October 2002.
Today I had a close look at one of the big Puriri trees we fenced off from the stock last year.
I had read recently about the lifecycle of the Puriri Moth, Aenetus virescens, which spends about five years of its life within the trunk of the Puriri tree, before motamorphosing into the moth and living for only a couple of days/nights - or less if spotted by our wicked FoxtonBeach cat!
I saw what looked like a crysalis case sticking out of a hole in the tree, so pulled, very gently, and this is what I had...
