Teinocladia cuculloides – a grassland moth
- Title
- Teinocladia cuculloides – a grassland moth
- Description
- Teinocladia cuculloides (also known as Capusa cuculloides) . This moth's colour and patterning means that it is well camouflaged in its environment, protecting it from predators such as birds. Unusually for Geometrids, it folds its wings tightly along its back when at rest, making a shape that tapers to a point at the end of the abdomen.
