- Info Attacus taprobanis is a moth of Saturniidae family. It is native to southern India and Sri Lanka. This species is very similar in morphology to the much more widely distributed Attacus atlas. It was once considered a subspecies of A. atlas. The larvae feed on various bushes and trees. Adult moths do not take foods and survive on fat they have stored from their larval period. Here the larva feeds on Swietenia macrophylla. Size: Length: 80mm; Thickness: 20mm. Created, uploaded and nominated by Jkadavoor -- Jee 06:05, 9 June 2018 (UTC)
