Taxonomy
The species has been reared from a spineless cactus species. It is probably a synonym of Cactoblastis cactorum, but the type specimen is lost, so the identity is unclear.[2]

gollark: I have a fullres version somewhere, but it shows as heptagony/hexagony in Discord fine.
gollark: You can tell it's a hyperbolic tessellation of some kind because of the... hyperbolic tessellationy look... where there are things getting smaller and smaller near the outsides.
gollark: You can actually see heptagons and hexagons if you look at it.
