Ilia Underwing
Catocala ilia

Observation date: June 06, 2020
Date notes: At first it was thrashing around and flipping itself onto its back. We thought maybe it had been affected by a toxin. When we went out to check on it ten minutes later it was acting normally. 7 cm (2.75"). Hot day. Around 11 am. At the bottom of an oak tree.
