Based on the photos I also agree that these are not clothes moths but what
I've heard called brown house moths. I was once told that they are related
to clothes moths which is why they end up in pheromone lures.

I have to say that none of these moths looks like *Tinea pellionella*
or *Phereoeca
uterella. *My guess is that they are all accidentals from outside. I'm
happy to have a look at some specimens, and will be able to say if they are
one of the pest species, but my familiarity with the North American "wild"
microlepidoptera borders on the non-existent, so approaching a local
lepidopterist might be your best bet for a definitive answer.

Can anyone identify these two sets of moths? We've been finding them in 
mechanical rooms and near exterior doors. The smaller moth (photo "Moth3") has 
been showing up on pheromone traps with webbing clothes moth and casemaking 
clothes moth lures. Only adults have been found.

Javier -
 
In addition to Tony's comments, in the U.S. we commonly call these types of 
moths underwing moths because the second pair of wings is usually colorful and 
the top or first pair exhibit a camouflaged appearance.  Another common name 
for this group is sphinx moths.  As Tony stated, they are highly attracted to 
exterior lights at night.

Dear colleagues, hello from Madrid.
Could anyone help us to identify this moth we found flying in the reading room? 
The bug is relatively big -37 mm long- .What does its larvae eats?




Thank you!

This is the Silver-striped Hawkmoth, Hippotion celerio - its caterpillar
feeds on plants such as bedstraw (Gallium) and willowherb (Epilobium). This
individual was presumably attracted to light.

I don't think the moth larva were on the carcasses when they went into the
colony, I have never had moths in the prep lab.  Our dermestids are housed
in an out-building adjacent to an area where live mammals and birds are
housed in outdoor caging.  Food for the animals is also prepared in the
building, a student who works there said there were moths in the animal
food as well (I don't know if the food is animal, fresh vegetable or
grain).

The colony itself is in a well sealed container, but is opened regularly
for misting and feeding, it would be easy for moths to fly in if they were
attracted to the contents.

Tamar,

Interesting.  If I had to guess, I would say those were either webbing
moths or case making moths.  I am trying to learn more about how these
moths survive and spread, so I will be following this thread...

Could it be a case where the bones had the moth eggs on them before they
were placed in the current environment?

Is the bone cleaning environment sealed pretty well to keep moths/larvae
from getting in from the outside?

Thanks for posting,
-Todd

Not Casemaking clothes moth - much more likely Brown House Moth,
Hofmannophila pseudospretella.

  Hello Group,



  I captured this moth on a blunder trap under a bed last week. From what I
have read, it looks an awful lot like a Casemaking Clothes Moth. Any
confirmations?



  Thanks,

They look like Noctua pronuba - in Britain it is known as the Large Yellow
Underwing. You're correct - they are not a threat to the collections, except
when they die, there's quite a few potential meals for other pests in one of
them!
They are attracted to light, and I'd suggest they flew in through an open
window some evening.

  Hello,



  During the deinstallation of a gallery, we came across two (deceased)
moths and after looking at the great online resources from this group, I do
not believe these are dangerous to the collections. I would feel more
assured having some of your educated eyes look at them.  I am curious how
the two got in the gallery space.



  Thanks for any assistance you can provide.
