Yesterday, I took an afternoon walk along the township road. I stopped at a clearing in Blang Village. On the edge of the clearing, there are many bushes. Do you know what I found?
I found a beautiful insect that was sucking the nectar of flowers, its tail is orange with black stripes like the tail of a tiger. In the dictionary of insects, it's called Amata Huebneri. It has wings like a butterfly, but it's not a butterfly. Amata Huebneri is commonly known as wasp moth, sometimes also known as tiger moth because its abdomen resembles a tiger's tail.
This moth species was first described by Jean Baptiste Boisduval in 1829. According to Boisduval, they are found from the tropical regions of Indo Australia to northern Australia. But just so you know, Amata Huebneri generally also has a large habitat in Indonesia, especially in the island of Sumatra.

Kemarin, saya jalan-jalan sore menyusuri jalan perkampungan. Saya berhenti di sebuah tanah lapang di Desa Blang. Di pinggir tanah lapang itu banyak ditumbuhi semak-semak. Tahukah kamu apa yang saya temukan?
Saya menemukan seekor serangga yang cantik yang tengah menyedot nektar bunga, ekornya berwarna orange dengan belang hitam serupa ekor harimau. Dalam kamus serangga, dia disebut Amata Huebneri. Dia memiliki sayap seperti kupu-kupu, tetapi dia bukan kupu-kupu. Amata Huebneri umumnya dikenal ngengat tawon, terkadang juga dikenal ngengat harimau karena abdomennya mirip ekor harimau.
Spesies ngengat ini pertama kali dijelaskan oleh Jean Baptiste Boisduval pada tahun 1829. Menurut Boisduval, mereka ditemukan dari daerah tropis Indo Australia hingga Australia utara. Tetapi asal kalian tahu, Amata Huebneri umumnya juga memiliki habitat yang besar di Indonesia, khususnya di Pulau Sumatera.
