About Drasteria cailino Lefèbvre, 1827
Drasteria cailino (Lefèbvre, 1827) is a moth species in the family Erebidae. It was first formally described by Alexandre Louis Lefèbvre de Cérisy in 1827. Its range extends from southern Europe, through the Near East and Middle East, to the western Himalayas in the eastern part of its distribution. In the Levant, multiple distinct isolated populations occur in Lebanon, Syria, and Israel. This species produces two generations annually. Adult moths are active in flight from May to July, and again in early autumn. The larvae of this moth feed on Salix viminalis and Rosa canina.
