Urania fulgens
The Urania Swallowtail Moth (''Urania fulgens'') is a day-flying moth of the Uraniidae family. It is found from Veracruz, Mexico, through Central America to northwestern South America (west of the Andes and south to Ecuador).〔Smith, N.G. (1972). ''(Migrations of the day-flying moth Urania in Central and South America. )'' Caribbean Journal of Science 12: 45-58〕〔Quinn, M. (2011). ''(Urania Natural History. )'' Texas Lep Information. Accessed 12 October 2011.〕 It is highly migratory and has been recorded as a vagrant to Texas, USA.〔
It is sometimes confused with the similar ''U. leilus'', but that species is found east of the Andes in South America, is slightly larger, and has more white to the "tail".〔 The two have been treated as conspecific.〔
As appears to be the case for all ''Urania'', the larvae of ''U. fulgens'' feed exclusively on the toxic ''Omphalea'' species.〔Lees, D.C. and N.G. Smith (1991). ''(Foodplant Associations of the Uraniinae (Uraniidae) and their Systematic, Evolutionary, and Ecological Significance. )'' Journal of the Lepidopterists' Society 45(4): 296-347.〕
