The Atlas moth (Attacus atlas) is a large saturniid moth found in the tropical and subtropical forests of Southeast Asia, and is common across the Malay archipelago.

Atlas moths are considered the largest moths in the world in terms of total wing surface area, reaching upwards of c. 400 cm2 (62 sq in). Their wingspans are also amongst the largest, reaching over 25 cm (10 in). Females are appreciably larger and heavier.

Atlas moths are said to be named after either the Titan of Greek mythology, or their map-like wing patterns. In Hong Kong the Cantonese name translates as "snake's head moth", referring to the apical extension of the forewing, which bears a more than passing resemblance to a snake's head.

Thank you for your interest and for stopping by my gallery. There are no AI generated images in my collections. I prefer originally generated content with only digital enhancements. I first discovered digital art in August of 1999 and immediately knew that this form of expression perfectly fits my creative outlet. The digital realm allows me to go beyond any physical limits in the creative experience and is best summed up by Allen Saunders, who in 1957 wrote, “ Life is what happens while you are busy making other plans”. *Orders are printed and shipped by Fine Art America.
