Citheronia regalis, the regal moth or royal walnut moth, is a North American moth in the family Saturniidae. The caterpillars are called hickory horned devils. The adult (imago) has a wingspan of 3.75–6.1 in (9.5–15.5 cm). The species was first described by Johan Christian Fabricius in 1793.
several more times. Adults of this family of moths have vestigial mouths, meaning their mouthparts have been reduced. Because of this, they do not eat and only live for about a week as adults.
There is a single generation of Citheronia regalis throughout its range, but in the deep south, moths have been recorded throughout the longer growing season. Typically, C. regalis is a midsummer moth, on wing from late June through August with larvae peaking August through October. There is a distinct bell curve to the emergence, with peak weeks coinciding with the first spell of the humid summer weather which may synchronize emergences.

Moth of the Week:
Rosy Maple Moth
Dryocampa rubicunda
Tumblr media
First described by Johan Christian Fabricius in 1793, this moth is part of the Saturniidae family. This family is better known as the great silk moth family. However, these moths are the smallest of the silk moths. They get their name from their preferred host plants: maple trees.
Description One difference between males and females are males have larger antennae to sense female mating pheromones. Both share pink antennas, undersides, and legs. Body and wing colors range from yellow, pink, white, and cream. As caterpillars they are green.
Female wingspan: 3.8 - 5 cm (1.5 - 2 in)
Male wingspan: 4.3 - 4.4 cm (1.25 - 1.75 in)
Diet and Habitat The rosy maple moth feeds on red maples, sugar maples, silver maples, box elder maples, and turkey oaks. The caterpillars eat the entire leaf and can even defoliate entire trees, however the damage isn’t usually permanent. Adult moths have no mouths so they do not eat. Rosy maple moths are found on the Atlantic coast of the United States and eastern Canada. Their northernmost reach includes Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and Prince Edward Island. Their southernmost reach is Dade County, Florida. They extend west from eastern Texas to Minnesota. Caterpillars live in temperate forests by suburban and urban landscapes
Mating Adult moths are solitary besides mating. During the warmer months, females release pheromones at night to attract males then lay eggs 24 hours after mating. Usually females lay eggs once a season, but they can lay up to 3 times in souther regions. In these cases, rosy maple moths are polyandrous, meaning they will have multiple mating partners. Females lay eggs on the underside of the leaves of the host trees in groups of 10 to 40 eggs.
Average amount of eggs laid: 150 - 200
Predators The predators of these moths are birds like blue jays, tufted titmice, and black-capped chickadees. To prevent predation, this moth uses bright colors to trick predators into thinking it is poisonous. Additionally, the colors help the moth camouflage itself by blending in with the maple seed cases.
Fun Fact Rosy maple moths can’t hear sounds.

cool bug facts day 555! Dryocampa rubicunda, the rosy maple moth, is a small North American moth in the family Saturniidae, also known as the great silk moths. It was first described by Johan Christian Fabricius in 1793. The species is known for its wooly body and pink and yellow coloration, which varies from cream or white to bright pink or yellow.[2] Males have bushier antennae than females, which allow them to sense female pheromones for mating.[2]
As the common name of the species implies, the preferred host trees are maple tree. Adult females lay their yellow ovular eggs in groups of 10 to 40 on the underside of maple leaves.[2][3] The emerging caterpillars, also known as the greenstriped mapleworm, mainly feed on the leaves of their host maple trees, particularly red maple, silver maple, and sugar maple. Since the caterpillars eat the entire leaf blade, in dense populations, caterpillars have been known to defoliate trees, resulting in aesthetic rather than permanent damage. However, like all other Saturniid moths, the adult moths do not eat.[4]
The rosy maple moth is the smallest of the silk moths; males have a wingspan of 3.2 to 4.4 centimetres (1.25-1.75 in); females of 3.8 to 5 centimetres (1.5–2 in). The species can be identified by their unique, but varying, pink and yellow coloration. They have reddish-to-pink legs and antennae, yellow bodies and hindwings, and pink forewings with a triangular yellow band across the middle.[2]
The rosy maple moth lives across the eastern United States and adjacent regions of Canada. Their northernmost range includes the southern regions of Canada, including Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and Prince Edward Island.[2] Their range extends south along the Atlantic coast of North America to Dade County, Florida, and extends west from eastern Texas through Minnesota.[5]
The rosy maple moth can be found in temperate deciduous forests and nearby suburban areas and urban landscapes.[2][6] Their common name derives from the fact that they can primarily be found on maple trees, including red maples (Acer rubrum), sugar maples (Acer saccharum), silver maples (Acer saccharinum), and box elder maples (Acer negundo). They can also be found on oak trees, particularly turkey oaks (Quercus laevis), especially when they are found dispersed among maple trees.[2][7]
Larvae hatch and live on the same tree through their development, then pupate in the soil beneath the same tree. The larvae primarily eat the underside of leaves, therefore preferentially staying in that location of their home tree. The adults do not eat, so they can have a sizeable home range.[2]
The rosy maple moths preferentially lay their eggs on maple trees, and sometimes nearby oak trees. Since the larvae remain on the same tree upon which they hatched, most larvae feed on the underside of maple leaves or oak leaves. In early instars, the larvae feed together in groups, but beginning in the third or fourth instar the caterpillars begin to feed individually.[8][9] The larvae eat the entire leaf blade and are capable of consuming a few leaves each. Thus, large populations of greenstriped mapleworms are capable of defoliating trees. This damage is mostly harmless and the leaves will grow back.[10] As with all Saturniidae, adult rosy maple moths do not feed.[2]
Female rosy maple moths lay their eggs one day after fertilization. During those 24 hours, the eggs are protected inside the body of the female. Besides this, rosy maple moths exhibit little parental care, as the female leaves after depositing her eggs. Females typically lay around 150 to 200 eggs in groups of 10 to 40 on the underside of leaves of maple trees and occasionally oak trees. Females typically only reproduce once, but in southern regions they can lay eggs up to three times.[2][9] Egg laying typically occurs in the warmer months, with a peak in July, although precise timing depends on the region. In northern regions, one brood is laid between May and August. Further south, two broods are laid between April and September. In Florida, between March and October three broods are laid.[2]
Caterpillars live and feed in groups until the fourth instar when they become solitary. Adult rosy maple moths are mostly solitary besides during mating.[2]
Individual rosy maple moths typically live for about two to nine months. Between hatching and adulthood, the species undergoes five instars. For moths with longer life spans, much of this time is spent as a pupa over the winter months.[2]
Eggs are laid 24 hours after fertilization. The eggs are ovular and about 1.4 mm in diameter, with a thin smooth yellow shell.[3] Eggs hatch after about ten days to two weeks.[2][7] After hatching, a transparent egg shell is left behind.[11]
Rosy maple moth larvae are known as greenstriped mapleworms, and they undergo five instars prior to adulthood, during which their coloration and eating behavior changes. In early instars, the larvae have relatively large black heads and pale yellow-green bodies with faint green stripes. They have two large dark-green to black tubercles on the second thoracic segment and three rows of smaller spines, or setae, on each side of their body.[2][3] The larvae undergo their first molt around 6–11 days after hatching, their second molt approximately 12 days after hatching, and their third molt around 19 days post hatching.[2] In the next instars, the black head becomes smaller relative to the diameter of the body and the longitudinal stripes darken and become reddish.[3] In later instars, the head becomes yellow, and in the final instar, becomes bright red. By the final instar, the body is yellow green with longitudinal stripes that range from white to green to black.[3] The two prominent horns on the second thoracic segment are accompanied by two rows of short spines found along both sides of the body.[2] At maturity, the caterpillars reach lengths of about 2 inches.[12] Until the fourth instar, the larvae live and feed together, but in their final two instars they are solitary.[12]
After about a month, full-grown caterpillars crawl to the bottom of the host tree and pupate in shallow underground chambers. The pupae are very dark, elongated, and have small spines. The pupa ends in a small forked point.[12] The pupal stage lasts at least two weeks and up to the whole winter.[7][11] If the moths pupate over winter, the majority of their lives are spent in the pupal stage.[2] When the imago (adult) ecloses, it has small wings which it has to pump full of fluid in order to expand them and allow for flight.[12]
Adult rosy maple moths are distinguishable by their bright pink and yellow color, although exact coloration can vary significantly. Both sexes have a wingspan of 32–55 mm. Their bodies are woolly, and typically yellow on the top and pink on the underside, but can range to cream or white. Their legs and antennae are also pink. The forewings can be yellow to white with varying amounts of pink along the edges. The alba subspecies, found in Missouri, is completely white or white with faint pink markings.[2]
The predators of the rosy maple moth and larvae mostly consist of birds including blue jays, black-capped chickadees, and tufted titmice. The bright coloration of the wings may serve as a defense mechanism to trick predators into thinking they are poisonous and not edible.[2] The colouration of this moth rather surprisingly acts as a form of camouflage, blending it in with maple seed cases.
Rosy maple moths exhibit sexual dimorphism, that is males and females have different appearances. In the case of the rosy maple moth, males have narrower and less rounded wings. Additionally, while females have simple antennae, males have bipectinate (comb-like on both sides) antennae to sense females' pheromones during mating.[2] The moths become sexually mature at 2 to 9 months of age. Mating occurs at night, when females release pheromones to attract males. Fertilization occurs internally, and females lay their eggs 24 hours after mating. The moths are polygyandrous: females find a new male to mate with each time during breeding season when multiple broods are laid per season in warmer regions.[2]
Adults become active in the warmer months of the year. In a study that compared D. rubicunda with Actias luna, the prevalence of the rosy maple moth was found to vary with changes in temperature, with highest counts at the highest temperature, perhaps due to the tropical origin of the subfamily Ceratocampinae. Their small size, preventing more effective body temperature control, may also contribute to their preference for warm weather.[13] Adult moths are generally nocturnal, preferentially flying throughout the first third of the night.[12]

The Rosy Maple Moth Today I want to talk about one of the most charismatic moths there is: the rosy maple moth! It’s hard not to fall in love with this cute little creature, which is characterized by its wooly yellow body and soft pink wings. I just want to give it a squeeze! It is in the Saturniidae, or giant silk moth family, just like the Luna moth. As you might have guessed from their name, the caterpillars like to feed on all kinds of maple trees. However, in its imago, or adult, form, the rosy maple moth doesn’t feed. In fact, it has no mouth to speak of! This is true of all giant silk moths, of which the rosy maple moth is the very smallest.  These moths live in the eastern United States, as well as some parts of Canada, and its Latin name is Dryocampa rubicunda. The rosy maple moth was first described by Johan Christian Fabricius in 1793. What an exciting day that must have been for him!

Just before his death in 1702, butterfly collector William Charlton delivered an unusual specimen to London entomologist James Petiver. Petiver wrote, “It exactly resembles our English Brimstone Butterfly (R. Rhamni), were it not for those black spots and apparent blue moons on the lower wings. This is the only one I have seen.” Carl Linnaeus named it Papilio ecclipsis and included it in the 12th edition of his Systema Naturae in 1767.
It wasn’t until 1793 that Danish zoologist Johan Christian Fabricius discovered that the dark patches had been painted on — it was only an ordinary brimstone butterfly after all. The curator at the British Museum “indignantly stamped the specimen to pieces” at this news, but entomologist William Jones created two new replicas to commemorate the “Charlton Brimstones.”

Butterfly 7733 by gosdin
Via Flickr: From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Monarch Butterfly Danaus plexippus Male
Scientific classification e Kingdom: Animalia Class: Insecta Order: Lepidoptera Family: Nymphalidae Genus: Danaus Species: D. plexippus Binomial name Danaus plexippus (Linnaeus, 1758)
Synonyms
Papilio plexippus Linnaeus, 1758 Danaus archippus (Fabricius, 1793)[1] Danaus menippe (Hübner, 1816)[2] Anosia plexippus Dyar, 1903
The monarch butterfly or simply monarch (Danaus plexippus) is a milkweed butterfly (subfamily Danainae) in the family Nymphalidae. Other common names depending on region include milkweed, common tiger, wanderer, and black veined brown.[3] It may be the most familiar North American butterfly, and is considered an iconic pollinator species.[4] Its wings feature an easily recognizable black, orange, and white pattern, with a wingspan of 8.9–10.2 cm ( 3 1⁄2–4 in)[5] The viceroy butterfly is similar in color and pattern, but is markedly smaller and has an extra black stripe across each hindwing.
The eastern North American monarch population is notable for its annual southward late-summer/autumn migration from the northern and central United States and southern Canada to Florida and Mexico. During the fall migration, monarchs cover thousands of miles, with a corresponding multi-generational return north. The western North American population of monarchs west of the Rocky Mountains often migrates to sites in southern California but has been found in overwintering Mexican sites as well.[6][7] Monarchs were transported to the International Space Station and were bred there.[8]

Verdwenen landhuizen in Sassenheim
Tumblr media
Als men vanaf de Sikkens de hoofdweg volgt, die steeds van naam veranderd (Rijkstraatweg, Hoofdstraat, dan komt men door Sassenheim.
Tussen de dorpen in ziet u landhuizen staan, soms direct langs de weg,  soms wat verder van de weg af. Ik zal ze opnoemen: Koningshuys (ook genoemd: Ter Nieuwburgh, Sassigt), Huys ter Leede. Wat u  niet meer ziet zijn de diverse andere landhuizen die langs deze voormalige hoofdverbinding tussen Leiden en Haarlem hebben gestaan.
Wiltrijk, Sassenheim, Hoofdstraat 55
 Een voormalig landhuis dat we nu kennen als boerderij aan de Wiltrijklaan.
 De boerderij dateert van vóór 1636 en hoort daarmee vermoedelijk tot de oudste boerderijen van ons dorp. De boerderij is ook gebruikt als kerk in de tijd van de reformatie.
In 1736 koopt de Heer Jan van Elsevier de boerderij die in bezit was van de zus van Willem Fabricius, Helena Wilhelmina Six, vrouwe van Laag Teylingen, nu Frank van Borsselaan 2.
Tumblr media
De kopse kant ligt naar de straatzijde. Zoals elke boerderij die uit de 17de eeuw dateert, is de afstand tot de Hoofdstraat vrij groot.
Buitenplaats Ter Weegen
Was gelegen ongeveer tegenover de huidige Warmonderweg en de Wasbeeklaan
Andere benaming die gebruikt zijn: Clinkenberg (Klinkenberg), Beresteyn,
Reeds in 1370 is er een vermelding van drie grote graanschuren die van de abdij van Rijnsburg waren.
In 1631 werd op een openbare veiling een boerenhofstede met 20 morgen land verkocht door de pachter Pieter Jacobsz. Clinckenbergh (1548-1633), gelegen in het gebied Clinkenberg. De koper was Johan van Lanschot (1579-1651) uit Leiden, regent van het Catharina- en Ceciliagasthuis en weesmeester. Hij kocht het voor 20.000 gulden Hij liet deze boerderij snel vervangen door een buitenhuis met de naam Clinkenberg. Zijn zoon Wouter van Lanschot (1632-1717) erfde het buiten. Hij was burgemeester van Leiden, had uit twee huwelijken 17 kinderen. Hij verkocht uit zijn grote bezit (waarschijnlijk), de boerenhofstede Klinkenberg met 5 morgen, 300 roe land voor 2.050 gulden aan de toen zeer bekende kunstschilder Carel de Moor.
In 1718 werd Carel de Moor (1656-1738) de nieuwe eigenaar. Hij heeft het huis slechts vijf jaar in zijn bezit gehad, waarna hij zijn buiten voor Leevliet in Warmond verruilde.
Omstreeks 1724 kocht Mr. Frans Velters ( -1726) de buitenplaats voor 4.000 gulden. Hij liet de buitenplaats afbreken en op dezelfde plaats verrees een nieuwe landhuis dat door hem Ter Weegen werd genoemd. Na het overlijden van Frans bleef zijn weduwe op de buitenplaats wonen. Zij verkocht het landgoed in 1737 met omliggende grond en het Sterrebos aan de heer Herman Berewout (1693-1751) uit Amsterdam. Herman Berewout was koopman op West-Indië en handelaar in vermiljoen, zwavel, hars en olie. Hij vernoemde de buitenplaats deels naar zichzelf. Landgoed Beresteyn.
Jan Nicolaas Eys (1691-1758) uit Amsterdam werd op 20 november 1752 eigenaar van de buitenplaats. Na de heer Eys kwam het in 1758 in bezit van Paulus Pieman & Wijnand Meurs.
In 1762 ging het eigendom over naar Court Rosenboom, wiens zoon, mr. Jan Hendrik Rosenboom er woonde samen met zijn vrouw Francoise W.E. van der Noot de Gieler. In 1793 verkochten zij het gehele bezit aan Hendrik van Eyl Sluiter. Na het overlijden van diens vrouw werd het landgoed in 1798 verkocht aan Eduard Gustaaf Boode (1774-1837).
Zijn vader exploiteerde in Demerary (thans Frans Guyana) diverse plantages. Na het overlijden van zijn vader in 1796 erfde hij een miljoenenbezit aan overzeese plantages. Hij trouwde in 1796 met Lissa Anna Maria Debora Roseboom, de dochter van de voorlaatste eigenaar Jan Hendrik Roseboom. Na haar overlijden in 1798 trouwde hij in 1799 met de uit Demerary afkomstige Cathérina Bourda.
In 1812 besloot hij uit te wijken naar Engeland. De buitenplaats en de inboedel van het huis werden na zijn vertrek naar Engeland door de Fransen, op dat moment bezetters van Nederland, als vijandelijk bezit beschouwd, dientengevolge geconfisqueerd en in het openbaar verkocht.
De buitenplaats komt in handen van Cornelis Hofdijk. Hij woonde al vanaf 1812 op de buitenplaats en hij gaf zich uit voor een koopman. Hij kon zich echter niet handhaven en met zijn vrouw en negen kinderen vertrok hij al snel. Hij werd in 1815 gedwongen het huis te verkopen, waarna Jacob Adriaan baron Mulert tot de Leemcule (1778-1853) eigenaar werd.
In 1823 kwam het in bezit van Jan Hendrik Sieberg (1779-1835), onder wiens beheer de buitenplaats weer tot grote bloei kwam. Hij was al vanaf 1807 ook eigenaar van de buitenplaats Leerust in Warmond, gelegen naast het buiten Zorgvliet van zijn schoonouders.
Na het overlijden van Jan Hendrik Sieberg kwam de buitenplaats kort in bezit van jonkheer Adriaan Leonard van Heteren Gevers van Endegeest. Na hem volgde in 1840 Joan Christoph Rente Linsen (1782-1855), koopman te Amsterdam en zijn vrouw A.G. Voomberg. En vervolgens zijn neef Joan Christoph Samuel (1832-1883) als eigenaar.
Tumblr media
Rond 1883 moet het huis zijn afgebroken, het bos gekapt, het terrein afgegraven en daarna tot bollengrond verkaveld.
Rusthoff
De volgende buitenplaats is Rusthoff. Dit is nu ongeveer de ingang van het park Rusthoff in de Hoofdstraat van Sassenheim
De eerste schriftelijke vermelding van ‘Rusthoff’ dateert van 1798. Jean Adam Charbon, een uit Zwitserland afkomstige, welgestelde koopman en fabrikant van textiel te Amsterdam werd toen als eigenaar genoemd. Het totale grondbezit besloeg destijds ongeveer 27 hectare met inbegrip van de gronden die een agrarische bestemming hadden. Het huis stond aan de Sassenheimse Hoofdstraat, ongeveer waar nu de hoofdingang van het park is. Er achter lag een park in landschappelijke stijl met vijver en boomgroepen en een bos tot aan de Rusthofflaan. Tegenover het huis lag aan de overzijde van de Hoofdstraat een overplaats, waarvan de vijver langs de Charbonstraat een restant is. Nadat de achterkleinzoon van Jean Adam Charbon in 1916 was overleden, kocht de gemeente Sassenheim huis en park. Het huis werd in 1923 afgebroken. Het park werd met behoud van de hoofdelementen zoals vijver met eiland, tot openbaar wandelgebied omgevormd.
De buitenplaats met een park en aanpalende gronden werd in 1791 gekocht door Jean Adam Charbon. Een uit Zwitserland afkomstige koopman en fabrikant van textiel te Amsterdam. Het totale grondbezit besloeg destijds 27 hectare.
Achter het huis lag een park in landschappelijke stijl met vijver en boomgroepen en een bos tot aan de Rusthofflaan. Tegenover het huis lag aan de overzijde van de Hoofdstraat een overplaats, waarvan de vijver langs de Charbonlaan een restant is.
Tumblr media
In 1871 verwierf de gemeente van de familie Charbon een stuk grond ter grootte van 1700 m2 om er het toenmalige gemeentehuis te bouwen op de plek waar nu de herenmodehuis Melman is gevestigd. Nadat in 1916 de achterkleinzoon van Jean Adam Charbon was overleden kocht de gemeente Sassenheim huis en park voor 140.000 gulden. Het huis werd in 1923 afgebroken en het park werd tot openbaar wandelgebied omgevormd.
Park Rusthoff is een prachtig dorpspark, ontstaan vanuit een laat 18e. eeuwse buitenplaats. Je kunt er een leuke rondwandeling maken en de eendjes voeren in de vijver. Een unieke plek midden in het dorp Sassenheim.
Van de oorspronkelijke 27 hectare grootte buitenplaats rest nog 6 hectare. Tussen 1830 en 1850 werd het park in landschapsstijl aangelegd door de beroemde landschapsarchitect J.D. Zocher jr. Een grote groep vrijwilligers zorgt nu voor het onderhoud van het park.

#damigellavolante #zygoptera #libellule #odonati # Gli Odonati (Odonata Fabricius, 1793) sono un ordine di insetti emimetaboli legati all'elemento acquatico. Gli stadi giovanili (neanidi o naiadi, e ninfe) vivono infatti nell'acqua mentre gli adulti sono abilissimi volatori e predatori diurni che vivono nei pressi di stagni, pozze o corsi d'acqua calmi. Sono tra gli insetti che raggiungono le taglie maggiori e i colori più sgargianti. L'apertura alare è sovente maggiore della lunghezza del loro corpo. Comunemente gli esemplari di Odonata sono indicati per analogia anche come "libellule", sebbene questo termine appartenga specificamente a tutti gli esemplari del genere Libellula inserito nel medesimo ordine. #byeù (presso Lago di Campotosto) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0_JC8JiaMky8uyiCzJoh0MXyl_YxYUzp0d4_o0/?igshid=eugc2cpx4h2o
