About Zekelita antiqualis (Hübner, 1809)
Zekelita antiqualis is a moth species belonging to the family Erebidae. It was first formally described by Jacob Hübner in 1809. This species can be found in the Balkans, the Near East, the Caucasian region, and the Levant, specifically in Lebanon, Israel, and Jordan. Adult Zekelita antiqualis are active and able to be seen in flight from March to April, and again in October. It is thought that this species produces multiple generations each year. The caterpillar larvae of this moth feed on Salvia officinalis and other species in the plant family Labiatae.
