Moths are often thought of as dull insects, flying at night and having a large, hairy body, and butterflies as brightly colored insects, flying during the day.
But there are many colorful moths that fly during the day.
The six-spotted sphinx and saturnia are examples. The real difference lies in the shape of the antennas and the link between the front and rear wings.
Moth
The antennae of a butterfly are long and surmounted by a hump, while those of a moth are fine and downy.
At rest, most butterflies fold their wings, showing their lower motives, while the moths keep their wings spread.
