Reproduction
The purpose of a Luna Moth is to mate and reproduce. Luna moth females will release pheromones. These chemicals will attract a male from their abdominal glands.The male is able to find the female luna moth this way. The luna moths will attach through their abdomens and mate.Luna moths will generally mate during the night when the chemicals are released. After mating, Luna Moths will lay about 200-400 eggs on hickory leafs. The male luna moth will fertilize the eggs,once fertilized the female moth will lay them on the side of a leaf.
