Reported as an adult

Usually reported as an adult early May to early August, middle week Jul 12–18.

From 534 records that are marked as adults. Not every photo is marked with a life stage, so this shows when people reported it as an adult, not when adults are about.

Reported as a caterpillar

Usually reported as a caterpillar late June to early October, middle week Aug 2–8.

From 25 records that are marked as caterpillars. Not every photo is marked with a life stage, so this shows when people reported it as a caterpillar, not when caterpillars are about.

What these results show

These results show when people recorded a species, not when or where it occurs. Missing weeks and low counts do not mean absence or scarcity, and counts are not abundance. Contributed records reflect where, when and what people chose to observe.

Identification

How to identify it

Telling it apart

From what Ohio’s records show. Only what the records support is shown.

Often confused with

  • Primrose Moth Schinia florida30 identifications worldwide named one where the other was meant

From iNaturalist’s similar-species counts, refreshed monthly: confusions in Ohio first, then worldwide. Only species with an Ohio result are listed.

When each is reported

  • All recordsUsually early May to early August, middle week mid-July · 560 records
  • Reported as a caterpillarUsually late June to early October, middle week early August · 25 records
