The cecropia moth is a member of the Saturniidae family. It is named after the queen of the gods in Roman mythology and is the most common species in the U.K. The eye spots on some species have concentric rings. Other names for the cecropia moth include "snake head moth." This is because their eyes are so similar to a deadly cobra's head.
