Info Post




This is a Corn Earworm Moth though it actually feeds on a variety of food and non-food plants (including cotton) and is considered an agricultural pest.  It is the larvae (caterpillar) stage that devours crops while the moth stage is a productive pollinator.  I think they are cool looking with their over-sized head and large round green eyes.  I have seen many of them on rabbitbrush, on which this one is pollinating.  SeEtta
