$The six-spot burnet (Zygaena filipendulae) is a day-flying moth of the family Zygaenidae. It is a common species throughout Europe.\nThe sexes are similar and have a wingspan of 30–40 mm (1.2–1.6 in). The fore wings are dark metallic green with six vivid red spots (sometimes the spots are merged causing possible confusion with other species such as thefive-spot burnet). Occasionally, the spots are yellow or even black. The hind wings are red with a blackish fringe. The adults fly on hot, sunny days from June to August,[Note 1] and are attracted to a wide variety of flowers such as knapweed and scabious, as well as the larval food plants bird's foot trefoil and clover. The species overwinters as a larva.\nThe larva is plump and hairy with variable markings, usually pale green with rows of black spots. It pupates in a papery cocoon attached to foliage (source Wikipedia).$

$Moths play a crucial yet often overlooked role in sustainability. As nocturnal pollinators, they support the reproduction of countless plant species, including those that daytime pollinators miss. Moths also serve as a vital food source for birds, bats, and other wildlife, contributing to a balanced ecosystem. Protecting moth habitats ensures biodiversity thrives, highlighting their importance in maintaining environmental sustainability.\nLocation: New Delhi (India)$
