Hemiceratoides hieroglyphica is a moth from Madagascar. It was discovered in 2006 that it frequents sleeping birds at night, and drinks their tears, using a specialized, harpoon-like proboscis. Tear-feeding moths outside of Madagascar, are not directly related to this species, and have evolved dissimilar mechanisms for drinking from large animals like deer or crocodiles.
