The mottled beauty

Alcis repandata

 

 

The mottled beauty (Alcis repandata) is a moth of the family Geometridae. The species was first described by Carl Linnaeus in his 1758 10th edition of Systema Naturae.

 

Subspecies and forms

    - Alcis repandata muraria
    - Alcis repandata repandata
    - Alcis repandata sodorensium
    - Alcis repandata f. conversaria
    Alcis repandata f. nigricata

 

Distribution

Alcis repandata is a common species of Europe and the Near East, extending throughout Europe to the Urals, in the south over the Mediterranean, Asia Minor, the Caucasus to Kazakhstan and in the north to the Arctic Circle.

Habitat

The species inhabits deciduous, mixed and coniferous forests, bushy heaths, meadows, marshes and settlement areas. In the Alps occurs up to 1800 meters.

Description

 

 
Adult moth

Alcis repandata has a wingspan reaching 30–45 mm. This is an extremely variable species,  typically being buff or grey with black bars along the costa, but often with a broad blackish band across the forewings.

Melanic forms are also common, especially in industrial areas. In all but the darkest variations the most characteristic feature is a pale zigzag line across the hindwing.

This species is rather similar to Willow Beauty ( Peribatodes rhomboidaria).

Biology

This moth flies at night in June and July and is attracted to light.

The larva feeds on the leaves and soft bark of a wide range of trees and other plants (see list below).

The species overwinters as a small larva.

  1. ^ The flight season refers to the British Isles. This may vary in other parts of the range.

Tuntomerkit

Kirjava mittari, jonka harmaanruskeissa siivissä on ohuita tummia ja vaaleita mutkittelevia raitoja. Takasiiven ulkoreunassa on aaltoileva tumma ohut viiru. Toukka on ruskea ja jähmettyy vaaran uhatessa matkien oksan tynkää. Siipien kärkiväli 34-41 mm.

Elinympäristö ja elämäntavat

Viihtyy puutarhoissa ja puistoissa. Lentää iltaisin ja öisin, jolloin käy kukilla, mutta tulee herkästi myös valoa kohti. Toukan ravintokasveja ovat enimmäkseen lehtipuut, mutta ruohovartisista kelpaavat esimerkiksi kultapiiskut.

Milloin voi havaita

Lentoaika kesäkuun puolivälistä elokuun loppuun.

Merkitys puutarhassa

Harmiton, toukkien vioitukset jäävät vähäisiksi.
