Automeris io is one of North America’s most recognizable moth species, known for its vivid yellow forewings and dramatic hindwing eyespots. When revealed, these bold circular markings serve as a defensive display to startle predators, making the species both visually striking and biologically fascinating.

The male form is especially vibrant, with strong coloration and refined wing structure that translate exceptionally well to display.

This specimen is presented within a naturalistic diorama setting, incorporating preserved moss, wood elements, and mineral textures to evoke its native environment. The composition highlights both the vivid coloration of the moth and its ecological context.
