Moths and butterflies

Firstly, what are moths and butterflies? They are insects in the family known as the Lepidoptera. The term means “scaly winged” from the Greek.

But, aren’t moths and butterflies different? Butterflies are a just a grouping within the Lepidoptera, in the same way that elephants are mammals and ladybirds are beetles. While common distinctions (like colours, antennae (butterfly antennae are clubbed, moths filamentous or feathery), day or night flying) exist, they’re not universal. Most moths are nocturnal, but many fly during the day and are largely diurnal. That said, most people can distinguish on appearances and behaviour between the  moths we call butterflies and the other types of moth.

Aren’t there some real differences? Well, physiologically there is one. Most moths have a wing-hooking mechanism (frenulum) that links their forewings and their hindwings and it can be disconnected; butterflies don’t, with one known exception, the Regent Skipper. So, butterflies need sun exposure to warm themselves whereas the other members of the Lepidoptera can unhook their hindwings and vibrate their forewings independently to warm up, much like shivering. There is another difference, butterflies don’t spin silk to make a cocoon, they make a chrysalis instead when they pupate. Moths do. There are one or two exceptions. But the bottom line is that butterflies are moths, as elephants are mammals, and ladybirds are beetles.

How many species of Lepidoptera are there? There are at least 180,000 species of Lepidoptera.   160,000 are what we in the UK call moths, 20,000 are butterflies. The UK has around 2,500 moth and 60 butterfly species.

Why are some moths called micro moths and others macro moths? Micro means small, macro means large. Originally, the Lepidoptera were divided into those that are small and those that are large. However, some micro moths are bigger than even the biggest macro moths and vice versa. The modern understanding of this the out-moded division is to do with evolution rather than size. The micro moths are older and so more primitive than the macro moths. Butterflies are macros. However, genetic studies are always advancing our understanding of the relationships and the lepidopteran family tree has changed over time accordingly.

Are moths important? Moths play vital roles in ecosystems. Many are pollinators, especially of night-blooming plants. Their caterpillars (larvae) are a major food source for birds, the flying adults for birds and bats, and several other animals, such as frogs. Because they’re sensitive to changes in the environment, moths are also useful indicators of biodiversity and habitat health.

Can moths hear? Yes, some moths have remarkably sensitive hearing. In fact, certain species have evolved ears specifically to detect the ultrasonic calls of bats, their main predators. This allows them to take evasive action mid-flight. Some moths can produce clicking sounds to jam a bat’s echolocation sense.
