Moth Vision Moths (like many other adult insects) have compound eyes and simple eyes. These eyes are made up of many hexagonal lens/corneas which focus light from each part of the insects field of view onto a rhabdome (the equivalent of our retina). An optic nerve then carries this information to the insects brain. what colors can Moths be? Moths’ antennae are often feathery. Sometimes, they’re thin like butterflies’ antennae, but without the clubs. Most of the time, butterflies’ wings display more vivid colors than moths’ wings do. This doesn’t mean that moths only come in shades of white, brown and gray, though. Beside this, how do I identify a moth? One of the easiest ways to tell the difference between a butterfly and a moth is to look at the antennae. A butterfly’s antennae are club-shaped with a long shaft and a bulb at the end. A moth’s antennae are feathery or saw-edged.Do moths have eyes on their wings?Why Butterflies Have ‘Eye Spots’ Some moths and butterflies bear circular, high-contrast marks on their wings that have long been thought to scare off predators by mimicking the eyes of the predators’ own enemies.
