Jordanita tenuicornis is a moth of the family Zygaenidae.

The young larvae of subspecies turatii feed on Carlina vulgaris and Centaurea ambigua , while mature larvae of this subspecies mine the leaves of Cirsium arvense and Centaurea species. The mine has the form of a fleck mine. The opening is a slit at the side of the mine.
Adults are on wing from April (on Sicily) to July (mountains of Italy).
The species name is derived from tenuis (meaning thin) and cornu (meaning horn) and refers to the thin antennae of this species.
Zygaena loti, the slender Scotch burnet, is a moth of the family Zygaenidae. It is a diurnal moth characterized by a black body, light colored legs, and red spots on its wings. The caterpillars are a yellow-green color and usually molt out of dormancy in late February to early March. The larvae feed on plants from the family Fabaceae until they enter their pupal stage and mature into adults in May to early June. For mating, Zygaenidae exhibit a dual-partner finding strategy, where females use pheromones while assuming a calling position, and males exhibit a patrolling behavior where they utilize both vision and the olfactory receptors in their antennae to locate a potential mate.
