Answers to Common Questions
There's no record of the largest luna moth, but their wing span is typically 3 1/2-4 inches. Anything larger would be big!
Actually because the adult moth has no mouth, they don't eat at all. The caterpillars of the Luna moth eat the leaves of trees such as the sweet gum, red maple, white oak and several others.
It ranges (in general) in the U.S. from Mexico up into Canada, and east of the great plains. Use the link (provided) to the Wikipedia article for more information.
