The Madagascan Sunset Moth (Chrysiridia rhipheus) is a day-flying moth of the family Uraniidae. It is considered one of the most impressive
and appealing looking lepidopterans. Famous worldwide, it is featured in most coffee table books on Lepidoptera and is much sought after by collectors. It is very colorful, though the iridescent parts of the wings do not have pigment; rather the colors originate from optical interference. Adults have a wingspan of 7 - 9 cm ( 2.8 - 3.5 inches ).
