DEEP YELLOW EUCHLAENA, THE SAW-WING, COMMON LYTROSIS, AND YELLOW SLANT-LINE MOTH

The Saw-Wing Moth. This is another moth in the Euchlaena genus. I have found a few individuals at my lights in late June. 

Deep Yellow Euchlaena, always a stunning beauty.

Common Lytrosis moth, an excellent bark mimic. 

Yellow Slant-line Moth. A few individuals visit my lights in May and July. 

Another Yellow Slant-line Moth. Some individuals are white rather than yellow. Note the sharply pointed hindwings. 

Another Deep Yellow Euchlaena. These moths visit my lights in late May and early June, and then again throughout the month of August. 

There are several species of Euchlaena moths, but the only one I see regularly is the Deep Yellow Euchlaena. 

I have found a couple of Common Lytrosis moths at my lights, all in the month of June.
