  1. tent-caterpillar moth

    A tent-caterpillar moth is a type of moth belonging to the family Lasiocampidae. These insects are best known for the tent-like communal nests that their caterpillars construct in trees. The nests are often visible in the early spring, as they tend to be found in deciduous trees and shrubs, and are conspicuously absent of foliage during that time. Some of the representative species include the eastern tent caterpillar, the forest tent caterpillar, and the western tent caterpillar. Adult moths are typically brown or gray with a wingspan of around 1 to 2 inches.
