Lettered Habrosyne
Habrosyne scripta

Observation date: August 12, 2012
Submitted by: edenny
Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: Amazing moth, about 2 1.2 inch wingspan, chunky body, this is a terrible photo but I hope you can see the designs--zigzag markings. The color is pretty good in the photo, light brownish with darker brown markings. Attracted to porch light on moderately warm, humid evening after a rainstorm. Very hard to photograph because it would not keep still
