| Summary: | Information on the immature stages of Zyganidae moths is rather limited compared to that on the adults. An encounter with the caterpillars on the Baccaurea motleyana tree enabled a description of the eggs, final-instar caterpillar and characteristic cocoon of the Chalcosiine Day-flying Moth, Cyclosia macularia Guérin-Méneville, accompanied by illustrations. Sexual dimorphism of this species based on the adults is also described. |
