Wikipedia Abstract

Cephrenes augiades, the orange palm dart, is a butterfly of the Hesperiidae family. It is found from Indonesia to the Solomons. The wingspan is about 40 mm. The larvae of subspecies sperthias feed on Archontophoenix, Livistona and Phoenix species. During the day it hides within a shelter made by using silk to join fronds of its host plant, which fold together and bend across each other naturally.
