Summary ²

The Common or Australian armyworm (Mythimna convecta) is a moth of the Noctuidae family. It is found in Australia. The term “Armyworm” is used because of their habit to spread out in a line across a lawn or pasture, and slowly “marching” forward, meanwhile consuming the foliage they encounter.
