I have seen as many as five on one rayless sunflower blossom but I could not believe when these four all positioned this way and faced me as I took the photo.

jcochran706Description
Fascinating attempted breeding interaction between a Pearl Crescent and Vesta Crescent, which lasted several minutes through much chasing and resting. Pearl Crescent shown in previous photo/observation. I wonder if they can hybridize.

cgurleyDescription
Individual about 2cm long, photographed on the plant Lomatium phoeniculaceum (gone to seed) in shortgrass prairie. The winds were at least 20mph which is not unusual in this area but high enough that insects might have a hard time flying, so this plant may have been convenient rather than a specially chosen spot.

A fairly distinctive species in an otherwise very difficult genus. Note the whitish ground color and minimal expression of spots and bands.

One of the few truly green Noctuids. I'd previously encountered the species not far away in the Rita Blanca NG in the northwest corner of the Texas Panhandle.
