Animal India

The red-vented bulbul (Pycnonotus cafer) is a member of the bulbul family of passerines. It is a resident breeder across the Indian subcontinent, including Sri Lanka extending east to Burma and parts of Bhutan and Nepal. They breed from June to September and lay two or three eggs in a typical clutch. Nests are small flat cups made of small dry twigs and spider webs, but sometimes making use of metal wires. The eggs hatch after about 14 days. The eggs are pale-pinkish with spots of darker red more dense at the broad end. The female lays eggs in 2-3 days. The red-vented bulbul bird lays its eggs in a nest hidden among the leaves in the forest at Tehatta, West Bengal; India on 06/06/2023. (Photo by Soumyabrata Roy/NurPhoto)

    Moringa Hairy Caterpillar - Animal India

    On October 29, 2024, a group of Eupterote mollifera caterpillars, also known as hairy caterpillars, are observed on the trunks of a Moringa tree (Moringa oleifera) in Tehatta, West Bengal, India. The female Eupterote mollifera moth, a common pest specific to Moringa trees in the Indian subcontinent, lays her eggs in clusters on the tender leaves and stems, which hatch within 5-7 days. These gregarious caterpillars feed in groups, scraping the bark and foliage of Moringa trees, often leading to severe defoliation during heavy infestations. Covered in densely irritating and poisonous hairs, these caterpillars can cause skin irritation upon contact. Here, one caterpillar is seen with its mouth in the bubbly foam created by spittlebugs on the Moringa trunk, highlighting its interaction with other organisms in the ecosystem.
