The lifecycle of the Bogong moth, a multivoltine species with the potential for three overlapping generations in favorable conditions where there is access to larval food plants green pathway. However, in most Bogong moth breeding areas conditions do not remain favorable, and moths from such areas undergo a spring migration to escape the unsustainable conditions (red pathway).
