Silver-Spotted Tiger Moth
Lophocampa argentata

Observation date: June 18, 2021
Submitted by: Jwolfe
Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: The caterpillar was on a dark green wooden post, however I moved it to a neighboring Douglas Fir as it would've otherwise been squished. There is an abundance of fir and pine trees near by, as well as buttercup, lupine, and salvia flowers.
