	Ghost Moth - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Ghost Moth (Hepialus humuli), also known as the Ghost Swift, is a moth of the family Hepialidae.
		The Ghost Moth gets its name from the display flight of the male, which hovers, sometimes slowly rising and falling, over open ground to attract females.
		The term ghost moth is sometimes used as a general term for all Hepialids.

	ghost - definition by dict.die.net
		Ghost moth (Zo["o]l.), a large European moth Hepialus humuli; so called from the white color of the male, and the peculiar hovering flight; -- called also great swift.
		ghost (Or "zombie") The image of a user's session on IRC and similar systems, left when the session has been terminated (properly or, often, improperly) but the server (or the network at large) believes the connection is still active and belongs to a real user.
		A ghost never comes naked: he appears either in a winding-sheet or "in his habit as he lived." To believe in him, then, is to believe that not only have the dead the power to make themselves visible after there is nothing left of them, but that the same power inheres in textile fabrics.

	Moth
		Moths are distinguished from butterflies by having threadlike or feathery antennae.
		Most consume leaves; others feed on roots (eg, ghost moth larvae), bore into tree trunks (carpenter worms), feed beneath the surface of leaves, stems or bark, thus forming tunnels (leaf, stem or bark miners), or bore into fruits or seeds (codling moth larvae).
		Clothes moths, which occur worldwide, are carried from house to house on clothing or other articles of animal origin.

		Another unusual feature of the ghost orchid is that it does not have a stem or foliage, so when the plant is not in bloom, it consists solely of roots.
		This moth is vital to the survival of the ghost orchid because it is believed to be the only insect with a proboscis long enough to pollinate the ghost orchid.
		The moth’s soda-straw proboscis is a perfect fit for the flower’s four-to six-inch spur-nectary, which is located at the end of the orchid’s bottom spur.

		The bush lupine (Lupinus arboreus) is a dominant woody shrub in the grasslands of Bodega Head and along the California coast (Fig1a).
		Outbreaks of the root-feeding larvae of ghost moths (Hepialus californicus, Fig1c) can devastate lupine stands, especially in dry years (Fig1b).
		However, entomopathogenic nematodes infect ghost moth caterpillars in soils and root systems, kill and mummify them with toxins from symbiotic bacteria, and indirectly protect lupines from fatal root herbivory.

		The ghost moth is an excellent disperser, but the nematode disperses poorly and is most abundant in areas with high soil moisture, leading to spatial variation in lupine population dynamics.
		Tussock moth outbreaks are intense but spatially localized, and experiments and models show this is the result of interactions between the poorly mobile moths and their highly mobile parasitoids (mostly several species of tachinid fly).
		In the present study, we extend previous models of the tussock moth and parasitoid interaction to include a slowly fluctuating carrying capacity caused by the nematode, ghost moth, and lupine interaction.
