Amata huebneri is a species of moth, Amata of the family Erebidae

Wingspan 44-50 mm.

Although there are a number of records of this species dating back to the 19th century, the adults are very difficult to distinguish from the Mullein (Cucullia verbasci), except by genitalia determination, and many of these records are now known to be erroneous.

There are at least two more modern confirmed records, both from Swanage in Dorset, in 1949 and 1994.

It occurs from Europe to Asia and feeds mainly on figwort (Scrophularia spp.)

The Colorado potato beetle (Leptinotarsa decemlineata), also known as the Colorado beetle, the ten-striped spearman, the ten-lined potato beetle, or the potato bug, is a major pest of potato crops. It is about 10 mm long, with a bright yellow/orange body and five bold brown stripes along the length of each of its elytra. Native to the Rocky Mountains, it spread rapidly in potato crops across America and then Europe from 1859 onwards.
Taxonomy:
The Colorado potato beetle was first observed in 1811 by Thomas Nuttall and was formally described in 1824 by American entomologist Thomas Say. The beetles were collected in the Rocky Mountains, where they were feeding on the buffalo bur, Solanum rostratum The genus Leptinotarsa is assigned to the chrysomelid beetle tribe Chrysomelini (in subfamily Chrysomelinae) (source Wikipedia).

This Species is known as a Pest Beetle in Potato Fields.
