Orschema

Orschema is a genus of moths in the family Geometridae. These moths are characterized by their slender bodies and often intricately patterned wings, which provide camouflage against bark and foliage. The larvae of Orschema species are typically polyphagous, feeding on a variety of host plants. The adult moths are nocturnal and are attracted to light. Their distribution is primarily found in tropical and subtropical regions. Research on Orschema focuses on their ecological roles, particularly as herbivores and prey for other animals, and their adaptation to diverse habitats. Specific details regarding their life cycle, mating behaviors, and the precise range of their host plants are subjects of ongoing entomological study. The exact number of species within the genus Orschema can vary as new species are discovered and taxonomic classifications are revised.
