	Phalaena, Saturniidae - South Seas Companion Natural Phenomenon (Site not responding. Last check: )
		They are large moths found throughout the world that often have feathery antennae and have eyespots on their wings as a defence against predators.
		Many species of Saturniidae are commonly called silkworm moths, but silk has traditionally been made commercially from the cocoons of Bombyx mori, a member of the Bombycidae family.
		Even so, in some cultures the cocoons of moths of the Saturniidae family are used to make thick strands of silk.

	::The Moths of Borneo::
		Lack of adult feeding and male sembling to a static female may be biologically linked, as described for the Saturniidae by Janzen (1984).
		Larvae of Sphingidae, Saturniidae and Brahmaeidae have a 'sphinx-like' alarm posture with head and thoracic segments retracted and lifted off the substrate; the dorsum of the thorax appears expanded and directed forwards.
		Thus, with unusual features of venation, resting posture, male genitalia and larvae found to be common to diverse families within the Bombycoidea, there are some grounds for considering that the group may be a natural one (see also Minet (1986)).

	Io moth, Automeris io (Fabricius) (Insecta: Lepidoptera: Saturniidae)
		The urticating or "stinging" spines and setae of some caterpillars are a well-known chemical defense found in several families of Lepidoptera, especially Megalopygidae, Limacodidae, Saturniidae, and a few Nymphalidae, Anthelidae, Lasiocampidae, Bombycidae, Eupterotidae, Lymantriidae, Arctiidae, and Noctuidae (Matheson 1950; Riley and Johannsen 1938; Roth and Eisner 1962; Wirtz 1984).
		In Florida, the main stinging caterpillars are the io moth (Automeris io (Fabricius), Saturniidae), the saddleback caterpillar (Acharia stimulea (Clemens) [formerly in Sibine], Limacodidae), and the puss caterpillar (Megalopyge opercularis (J.E. Smith), Megalopygidae) (Biery 1977; Zak 1986).

		I specialize in the rearing of the large caterpillars of hawkmoths (Sphingidae), silkmoths (Saturniidae), regal moths (Ceratocampinae) and butterflies.
		Caterpillars of the Saturniidae family are often large (three to four inches long with considerable girth).
		Butterfly caterpillars tend to be much smaller than those of the Sphingidae, Saturniidae or Regal moths.
