Comadia redtenbacheri moth in the family Cossidae . It is found in North America , where it has been recorded from Mexico and southern Texas .[1]
The length of the forewings is 12–14 mm for males and 13–16 mm for females. The forewings are brown with a white strip from the wing base to near the apex. The hindwings are grey-brown.[2] [3]
The larvae feed on the succulent leaves of the maguey and Agave salmiana instars .
In food and drink
The larvae are one of the species used to put into mezcal .[4] chilocuil , chinicuil , or tecol Mexican cuisine . The caterpillars are also known as gusanos rojos , giving its name to a popular brand of mezcal ; they are one of the two kinds of "worms " placed in bottles of mezcal, giving a unique color and flavor to the drink. The other, less appreciated ones, are the larvae of the agave snout weevil, Scyphophorus acupunctatus
