    The Twig Moth is a large, cryptically-coloured moth that inhabits oak woodland mainly in the south of England and Wales. It flies in June and July and comes to light. The caterpillar feeds on oak and overwinters. The moth is grey-brown and has a pale, upside-down Y-shape on the forewing. Unlike many other moths, this species rests with its wings spread and its abdomen exposed. It comes in two colour types: the 'normal' form is grey-white and peppered with dark speckles; the dark or melanic form is black all over.
