'Luna moth' [Actias luna] is one of the insect's common name. The translation into English, as 'moon moth', is another of its common names. Either way, it's a well-known moth with beautiful, pale green wings and furry white body. Its wingspan may reach 3-4 inches [7.62 - 10.16 centimeters].
But the adult form only will be seen for two weeks at most. It has no mouth parts. So it has no way of extending life beyond the time that's needed to lay eggs.
