The Columbia Silkmoth (Hyalophora columbia) is a large and impressive moth with rich brown wings accented by pale bands and prominent eyespots on each wing. Its bold patterning and size make it a striking member of the giant silkmoth family.
Native to North America, Hyalophora columbia is found across northern regions of the United States and into Canada. It is commonly associated with forested habitats, particularly those containing its host plants.
Interesting Fact:
Like other giant silkmoths, adult Columbia Silkmoths do not feed and rely entirely on energy stored from their caterpillar stage, living only long enough to reproduce.
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.
