Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Hypospila bolinoides is a species of moth in the Erebidae family. The species is found from the Indo-Australian tropics north to Japan and east to New Guinea, Queensland and the Carolines.[2]

The wingspan is 36–43 mm.[3]

The larvae feed on the young leaves of Derris species. When disturbed they drop to the ground or jump off their leaf. The body of the larvae is generally white below with a black central band and dull chocolate-brown above, banded longitudinally dorsally and subdorsally with whitish lines that incorporate pink and purplish elements. They have black head, marked with white and pink. Pupation takes place in a cell within a cut portion of a leaf which is folded over. The interior is lined with silk. The pupa has a sparse powdery bloom, giving it a bluish tint.
