Pine-tree lappet

Dendrolimus pini
Ka lebitso: "Dendro" comes from Greek for "tree", and "pini" is from the Latin for "pine". The "limus" part is Latin for "mud", which may refer to the moth's colouring.1

The pine-tree lappet is a moth whose caterpillars eat the needles and bark of pine and spruce trees. It is found across Europe, Asia and North Africa. Its caterpillars are covered in fine, sharp hairs that can irritate the skin and cause a serious illness, so it is important to recognise them and avoid touching them.1

Coniferous forests, especially those with Scots pine. Its caterpillars live on the trees and in the leaf litter on the forest floor over winter, so people may meet them in pine woods.1

This animal is not venomous. When the sharp hairs of the caterpillar or cocoon break the skin, they release a toxin. This can cause skin rash, inflammation of the joints and cartilage, and chronic osteoarthritis.1

E kotsi hakae ho batho?

Kotsi ho batho: E bohlokoE ka utlwisa bohloko haholo, empa hoo e batlang e le kamehla ha e kotsi haholo.

Contact with the hairs of living or dead caterpillars, or with their cocoons, can cause an illness called dendrolimiasis.1

E etsang ha e tshohile?

Caterpillars defend themselves with their sharp, irritating hairs, while adults lose these hairs and rely on camouflage.1

Dintlha

1

Mass feeding by caterpillars can strip whole forests of their needles, which harms the forestry industry.1

2

Caterpillars can survive for a month without food, which helps them spread when people accidentally transport them.1

3

Adult moths do not feed and live for only about 9 to 10 days.1

4

Caterpillars eat the first skins of their eggs as their first meal after hatching.1

5

Scientists found that the cast skins of the caterpillar contain a substance that may help protect them from fungal infections.1

6

A single generation takes one year in warmer climates, but about two years in cooler regions.1
