The silkworm is the larva or caterpillar of the domesticated silk moth, Bombyx mori (Latin: silkworm of the mulberry tree). It is an economically important insect, being a primary producer of silk. A silkworm's preferred food is white mulberry leaves, though they may eat other mulberry species and even osage orange. Domestic silk moths are closely dependent on humans for reproduction, as a result of millennia of selective breeding.
Most moths and nearly all butterfly caterpillars eat the leaves and flowers of plants. Some moth caterpillars eat fruit, or seeds, and a few eat animal foods like beeswax or fur. A very few species of caterpillars are carnivores, eating aphids or other soft-bodied insects. Adults mostly drink nectar or sap.owever, there are so many kinds of moths, and they eat so many kinds of plants and plant parts, that different species can be found in almost all land habitats. Moth and butterfly caterpillars are usually found on or near their food.
