	The Ash Moth is defined by its characteristic ashen wings, with a mottled gray texture and occasional black spots. Individuals possess short, fuzzy antennae and legs. These traits are shared by both male and female moths. Male specimens have an average wingspan of 12.7 cm, while females possess larger wingspans of up to 14 cm. Since [[50 TT]], the average male wingspan has decreased by approximately 0.1 cm each decade, and the average female wingspan by 0.12 cm.		The Ash Moth is defined by its characteristic ashen wings, with a mottled gray texture and occasional black spots. Individuals possess short, fuzzy antennae and legs. These traits are shared by both male and female moths. Male specimens have an average wingspan of 9.07 [[Unilateral Unit System\|paqoni]] (12.7 cm), while females possess larger wingspans of up to 10 paqoni (14 cm). Since [[50 TT]], the average male wingspan has decreased by approximately 0.29 qoni (0.1 cm) each decade, and the average female wingspan by 0.34 qoni (0.12 cm).

	The gray coloration of an Ash Moth's wings developed as a result of industrialization and the subsequent abundance of soot and ash across the island. In addition to cloud cover from the Storm obscuring most sunlight, pollution from machinery provided a reproductive advantage to individuals that were more easily able to blend in with their environment.

The '''Ash Moth''' ('''''Caeli Fraxinus''', '''Vo'qa Shinpat''' [tv]'') is a large species of [[moth]] endemic to [[T'vaqi]]. The Ash Moth is notable for being T'vaqi's only remaining native [[animal]] species.

== Description ==
The Ash Moth is defined by its characteristic ashen wings, with a mottled gray texture and occasional black spots. Individuals possess short, fuzzy antennae and legs. These traits are shared by both male and female moths. Male specimens have an average wingspan of 12.7 cm, while females possess larger wingspans of up to 14 cm. Since [[50 TT]], the average male wingspan has decreased by approximately 0.1 cm each decade, and the average female wingspan by 0.12 cm.

The gray coloration of an Ash Moth's wings developed as a result of industrialization and the subsequent abundance of soot and ash across the island. In addition to cloud cover from the Storm obscuring most sunlight, pollution from machinery provided a reproductive advantage to individuals that were more easily able to blend in with their environment.

Individuals subsist on a diet of nectar and sap, tending to prefer native [[Naqha]] flowers as a food source.

== In culture ==
The Ash Moth is a symbol of cultural pride in T'vaqi for its distinctive appearance and uniqueness to the island. The [[High Institute of the Sciences]] features an Ash Moth on its emblem. Riri, a type of gummy [[candy]] manufactured by the [[Qoqo]] company, is shaped to resemble various animals, including the Ash Moth.

It is common for students to capture and keep an Ash Moth the night before [[Examination Day]] for good luck.
