Macaria signaria

Insects

Macaria signaria, the dusky peacock, pale-marked angle or spruce-fir looper, is a moth of the family Geometridae first described by Jacob Hübner in 1809. The source recognises two subspecies. Semiothisa signaria signaria is found across Europe, Turkey, the Caucasus, Transcaucasia, the Ural, Siberia, the Far East, Sakhalin, northern Iran and Japan, while Macaria signaria dispuncta occurs in North America from Yukon and Newfoundland south to North Carolina, New Mexico, Arizona and California. The wingspan is 20 to 28 millimetres. The moth flies from May to July depending on the location, and its larvae feed on Picea abies and Larix sibirica.
