Cabbage Moth (Mamestra brassicae)

Spread: This moths has a natural range across Europe, Asia, and North Africa

Characteristics: The larva is green, khaki, grey-brown or brown with dark spots. The topside is darker than the bottom side and a yellow or light brown stripe goes round the middle portion by the spots. They grow to about an inch long before pupating, As the common and scientific names suggest.

Damage: The caterpillar of this species is seen as a pest for commercial agriculture. Often referred to as the "imported cabbageworm" they are a serious pest to cabbage and other mustard family crops. It can also be a pest of cultivated brassicas and sweet peas, but it feeds on a wide range of other plants . Due to its complex life history, this species overwinters either as a larva or a brown pointed oval pupa.
