The Common Carpet (Epirrhoe plebeculata) is a delicate moth with intricately patterned wings featuring bands of brown, cream, and gray. Its detailed, carpet-like pattern provides excellent camouflage against natural backgrounds such as bark and leaf litter.
Native to Europe, Epirrhoe plebeculata is found across much of Europe and extends into parts of Asia. It is commonly associated with gardens, hedgerows, and open woodland habitats.
Interesting Fact:
This species belongs to a group of moths known for their finely patterned wings, which resemble woven textiles—hence the name “carpet moths.”
This specimen is preserved, fully spread and professionally mounted in a clear PE display frame, making it ready for immediate display. Collection data is included.
All specimens are ethically sourced, collected responsibly with a focus on sustainability and minimal impact on wild populations.
