Clematis Clearwing Moth
Alcathoe caudata

Observation date: August 02, 2013
Submitted by: mmwm
Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: It's on lemon balm. I posted this to Bugguide.net (not realising it might be a moth) and they thought it was a Clematis Clearwing, which is certainly looks like, but the NH Regional checklist lists only three clearwings and none looks like this (nor is the Clematis Clearwing listed). ??
