The four stages of a moth is egg ,larva,puppa and Adult

Moths lay eggs that hatch into caterpillars just like butterflies do. Only after it forms and hatches from its cacoon does it resemble the adult moth.
A Yucca Moth caterpillar eats yucca plants. The adult moth lays her eggs on yucca plants.
It has compete metamorphosis as it changes from a larvae to a pupa and then becomes an adult moth.
Egg, larva, pupa, adult
The scientific name is Bombyx mori, which is the name for the domesticated -- totally dependent on humans -- silk worm. Its adult form is a flightless moth.
