EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent Great Peacock Moth, Saturnia pyri, which holds the title of being Europe's largest native moth. With its impressive wingspan stretching up to 15 centimetres, this majestic creature is a true marvel of nature. What sets it apart are the striking ringed eye spots adorning its wings, adding an element of intrigue and beauty. While its appearance may be enchanting, this moth has gained notoriety as an orchard pest due to its feeding habits on apple, pear, and other tree leaves. Despite this reputation, the Great Peacock Moth boasts an extensive range across Europe; however, it remains absent from the United Kingdom. The intricate details captured in this photograph allow us to admire every aspect of this remarkable insect. Its vibrant colors and delicate patterns make it a fascinating subject for zoologists and entomology enthusiasts alike. Known by various names such as Giant Emperor Moth or Viennese Emperor among others, Saturnia pyri truly represents the diversity found within European fauna.
