Like so many other African Saturnids, Pseudantheraea discrepans perfectly understands the art of working on peoples nerves. The pupae of this species hatch whenever they like, however never when they are supposed to and rarely close together. Moths have been emerging over the last four months now, without any logic. Sometimes they hatched while it was cool and dry, sometimes when it was hot and humid. So, if you want a pair of these, you need to be a very lucky person. So far, I haven't had males and females together. This giant silkmoth is fairly common in Western African and is recorded from Ivory Coast to Congo.The moths are large, with a wingspan up to fourteen centimeter.
