Where can I find gibdo moths?

Gibdo moths, also known as Moth Gibdos, can be found in the Gerudo Desert and the Depths beneath it, where they often spawn out of giant, glowing mushrooms that sprout up out of the sand. They can also be faithfully found in two places after a certain point in the game: the Ancient Altar Ruins located in the East Barrens of Gerudo Desert, and at the Gerudo Underground Cemetery in the Depths, where they will be covered in Gloom and also drop Zonaite.
