Talk:Attacus atlas

message: So, I see that the line about these moths being found in Brazil has been added and removed multiple times.  It does not have a source for that info, and I am skeptical that this creature would be found in SE Asia and Brazil as well, unless it is an introduced species, which the article does not mention.  Can someone clarify?  I personally am in favor of removing the statement if it cannot be verified Wcbpolish (talk) 13:17, 31 May 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Even if it is true that it lives in Brazil, going by the book, without any verification it should be removed. But I also doubt that it is true. Ypna (talk) 07:02, 4 June 2013 (UTC)

message: First Their wingspans are also amongst the largest, from 25–30 cm (10–12 in)., but then A record specimen of Attacus atlas from Java measured 262 mm
It is claimed to have maximum 30 cm span, and then said that record is 26.2 cm. Doesn't fit. 85.217.44.72 (talk) 17:37, 9 December 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Wingspan 

message: "Their wingspans are also amongst the largest, reaching over 25 cm (10 in). Females are appreciably larger and heavier." -- The males reach over 25cm and the females are appreciably larger? Or, the females reach 25cm and the males are appreciably smaller? It's a little unclear. And why "over" 25cm? How much over? 26cm? 30cm? Isn't there some sort of accepted range that's a little more specific? Humans can reach over 2 meters tall, but that's not really an accurate description of average human height.

message: I think the duration of each stage of their life cycle would be interesting enough to include in the article if someone wants to do it.  I found an article that claims the eggs take up to two weeks to hatch, the larva stage lasts up to 45 days, the pupa stage lasts around 21 days, and the imago stage lasts about five to seven days.  Starting from its larva stage and assuming each stage lives to its maximum it is possible this creature can live for approximately 73 days or a little over ten months.  Here's where I found those claims:
