[edit] Subfamily??

"This subfamily are characterised by their stoutly built bodies ...". Subfamily? What subfamily? Nurg 10:26, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Larvae eaten by Indigenous Australians

"Indigenous Australians living in the Australian Alps and the Canberra area are known to have feasted on the moth larvae". If the adult moths go to the Alps and the larvae live on the plains, how did people in the Alps get to feed on the larvae? Is the statement correct? Didn't they eat the adults? And is it correct to refer to "Indigenous Australians living in the Australian Alps"? Didn't they live elsewhere and stay in the Alps temporarily for the main purpose of eating the moths?

[edit] Life as Adult

The article states that adults live for 2-4 weeks. This seems unlikely as they need to migrate from NSW/Qld to the alpine areas then back to NSW/Qld to lay eggs. --220.233.33.170 02:05, 9 October 2007 (UTC)
