    The fall cankerworm, also known as Alsophila pometaria, is a species of moth in the family Geometridae. The name is derived from the caterpillars' habit of descending on silken threads from the trees they are feeding on and re-ascending on the same thread. They are known for their tendency to cause damage to a variety of trees in North America. Adult females have underdeveloped wings and cannot fly, while adult males are fully winged and can fly. It is considered a pest species in many regions.
