Dark spotted moths are commonly referred to as "spotted tussock moths," particularly the species Lymantria dispar, known as the gypsy moth. These moths are characterized by their dark spots on the wings and are found in various regions. Their larvae can be significant pests, particularly in forests, as they feed on a wide range of trees.
