Brief Summary
provided by Ecomare
Geometer moths are a delicate moth with a narrow body. The wings are usually spread flat. The caterpillars move in a characteristic manner, inching their way forward, which is why they are called inchworms. Due to the small lumps on the skin and the green or brown color, the caterpillar resembles a twig, making it well camouflaged. The family of geometer moths is extremely large.
