Luna moth
Actias luna

Observation date: June 05, 2004
Submitted by: LRGoodger
Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: When this came in to the porch lights and landed in my daughter's hair, I told her not to move while I went and got my camera. I need to talk to someone about how I can help the project. My website, archived at http://www.reocities.com/Athens/acropolis/4052/, has photos of most of my collection in the butterflies tab, all of which were caught by me personally. The Cass County Michigan checklist is missing many species I have caught there. Please have the appropriate person email me (one of the Michigan coordinators, perhaps?)
