( 'Gypsy Moth', 2009)Īdult gypsy moths breed one time per year, usually in July or August. ( 'Gypsy Moth', 2009 McManus, et al., 1989)įemale gypsy moths release chemicals called pheromones to attract males. Both parents die after the eggs are laid, and the cycle repeats. Then, females come out and gypsy moths breed. Males come out first, usually 1 to 2 days before females. This usually happens 5 or 6 times, and then they become pupae in June or July.

As gypsy moths get older, larvae shed their skin and grow a new, larger one. They hatch in the next spring, together when the trees they live on get buds on them. The larvae stay dormant in their eggs throughout the winter. After 4 to 6 weeks, the embryos develop into larvae. Females lay eggs in July or August on the trunks or branches of trees. Gypsy moths go through 4 stages of development, which are called: egg, larva, pupa, and adult. These animals are found in the following types of habitat.( 'Lymantria dispar (insect)', 2011 McManus, et al., 1989) They are found near humans in urban and suburban areas.

They live in temperate climates, meaning places that have seasons. Gypsy moths live in forests or open forests, where the trees and shrubs they live on take up at least 20% of the space. ( 'Lymantria dispar (insect)', 2011 Munson and Hanson, 1981) There are a lot of them in the northeastern United States. They were introduced into the United States and Canada in 1869, and have spread quickly across North America. Gypsy moths originally lived in southern Europe, northern Africa, central and southern Asia, and Japan.

Range wingspan 37 to 62 mm 1.46 to 2.44 in.

Range length 15 to 35 mm 0.59 to 1.38 in.

Each spot has a patch of yellow or brown hair growing out of it. As they get older, they grow two rows of blue spots on their backs that then turn red. Gypsy moth larvae are black, hairy caterpillars. They all look similar, but Asian gypsy moths usually have the biggest largest larvae. There are three subspecies, which are European, Asian, and Japanese gypsy moths. Adult gypsy moths are normally 15 to 35 mm long, and their wingspan is 37 to 62 mm. Females are are a little bit bigger than males, and their bodies are covered with tiny hairs.

Males have feathery antennae, and females have antennae that look and feel like threads. Females are mostly white, and also have dark bands on their wings. Males are light brown with dark brown wings that have black bands on them. Male and female gypsy moths are different colors from each other.
