The adult and immature stages of Rothschildia zacateca (Westwood) are illustrated in color, and the immature stages are described for the first time. The known range of distribution of the species is increased from that until recently restricted to the type locality. Eggs were gathered from a captured female and caterpillars were reared in the laboratory on Prunus serotina (Rosaceae). Larvae pass through five instars.
