Its antennae are about two-thirds of its wingspan and its head is covered with yellowish white scales, which inspired the moth's name. [ 4 ] [ 5 ] Compared with N. neonata , the other species in the genus, N. donaldtrumpi male genitalia structures are smaller and female genitalia possess very few small setae .
Scales on the eye spot of a male Luna moth. This is a high resolution image taken under a dissecting microscope. I have several images of different areas of the eye spot under different magnification but this one is probably the best. The iridescent color of the scales is visible. Nominated by Peter Z.

Moths from the highlands, 900–1,080 metres (2,950–3,540 ft), have a median wingspan of 7 cm (2.8 in); moths from lower altitudes, 600 m (2,000 ft), have a median wingspan of 9 cm (3.5 in). [16] Like many other uraniine moths , the sunset moth has an uncanny resemblance to swallowtail butterflies , especially in its tails and colourful wings ...
The genitalia are attached onto the tenth or most distal segment of the abdomen. Lepidoptera have some of the most complex genital structures in the insect groups with a wide variety of complex spines, setae, scales and tufts in males, claspers of different shapes and different modifications of the ductus bursae in females.

Lepidoptera (/ ˌ l ɛ p ɪ ˈ d ɒ p t ər ə / LEP-ih-DOP-tər-ə) or lepidopterans is an order of winged insects which includes butterflies and moths.About 180,000 species of the Lepidoptera have been described, representing 10% of the total described species of living organisms, [1] [2] making it the second largest insect order (behind Coleoptera) with 126 families [3] and 46 superfamilies ...
