Close #relationships, e.g. cryptic species complexes, can lead to species being almost indistinguishable from one another. However, close relationships can also lead to #distinct #differences, as K. Tomihara et al. (2026) investigated at the molecular genetic level in the sister species of #silkmoths #Bombyx #mori and #Bombyx #mandarina. According to their findings, a conserved #Wnt family #genecluster is of particular importance, being associated with #morphologicaldivergence.

These rare elusive silk moths with their glowing wings make their nests in caves and underground spaces. Their webs, nests and chrysali are harvested and spun into fine threads for making clothing and other textiles. They are considered to be creatures of Lilith, Goddess of Darkness, as she cares for all nocturnal and darkness-loving species.

For comparison with images I've been sharing from my @Raspberry_Pi motion detection #AutomatedMothTrap, an image from #BlackMountain Canberra, 5 January 2022 00:51, from a battery-powered timelapse version (#RaspberryPi Zero and HQ camera).
On warm and busy nights, smaller insects often land on larger insects as with the two #Opodiphthera eucalypti #SilkMoths here: male (to left) with #Antictenia punctunculus (#Geometridae) and female (to right) with #Acropolitis rudisana (#Tortricidae)
