Domestic Silk Moth (Bombyx mori)
This page features illustrations of the Domestic Silk Moth (Bombyx mori) in various formats such as PNG, SVG, and AI. The moth, closely related to the wild silk moth, is known for its domestication and the cultivation of silkworms. Originally from China, the Domestic Silk Moth has been introduced worldwide and can no longer be found in the wild. Recognizable by its cream wings with dark veins, this species possesses reduced or absent mouthparts. While unable to fly, the male Domestic Silk Moth engages in a flutter dance as part of a mating ritual triggered by the female's pheromones.
