The Northern Deep-brown Dart (''Aporophyla lueneburgensis'') is a moth of the family Noctuidae. It is found in northern and western Europe. As the common name suggests, this species usually has very dark brown forewings, although paler grey forms exist. There is always a much darker central band, almost black in the darker forms. By contrast the hindwings are much paler, often almost pure white but usually with darker venation. The wingspan is 36–41 mm. It flies at night in August and September and is attracted to light and sugar as well as various flowers. The larva usually feeds on heather but has been recorded on other low plants such as bird's-foot trefoil. This species overwinters as a small larva. ==Taxonomy== ''Aporophyla lueneburgensis'' may be a subspecies of ''Aporophyla lutulenta''. #''The flight season refers to the British Isles. This may vary in other parts of the range.'' 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Northern Deep-brown Dart」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
