Processionaria
Taxonavigation[edit]
Translation for 'processionaria' in the free Italian-English dictionary and many other English translations. Larval feeding of the pine processionary moth weakens and disfigures pine trees. Semi-natural forests in the Mediterranean area of, for example, the native species P. Halepensis or P. Pinaster are affected, but not to the extent of damaging their biodiversity. The oak processionary (Thaumetopoea processionea) is a moth whose caterpillars can be found in oak forests, where they feed on oak leaves, causing significant damage.They travel in nose-to-tail processions (hence their name), often arrow-headed, with a leader followed by rows of several caterpillars abreast.
