Peridroma saucia aka The Pearly underwing
PT
Encontrei esta lagarta em 2012 (Se clicarem no ano, levar-vos-a ao post desta larva no blog principal) e desta vez não sabia se se tratava de Peridroma ou outro Noctuidae (As larvas são um pouco parecidas entre especies)
Alimentou-se em Trifollium sp (planta na qual encontrei) e mais tarde em Rumex e Plantago sp.
Para pupar, a larva enterra-se e faz um casulo de terra, no qual dentro pupa.
Envergadura 44-55cm

Found this caterpillar in 2012, (if you click in the year you'll see the first entry for this moth) and this time I didn't know exactly if it was Peridroma, or another Noctuidae (the larvae are a bit similar sometimes).
It fed on Trifollium sp (plant which I found) and later on Rumex and Plantago sp.
To pupate, it buries itself, making a soil cocoon, and then pupates inside.
Wingspan 44-55 cm
