Yellow-shouldered Slug Moth - Lithacodes fasciola
Copyright © 2005 Mike Boone

Yellow-shouldered Slug Moth - Lithacodes fasciola
Greenwood County, South Carolina, USA
May 26, 2005
Size: 12mm, head to wingtips
Found on my sliding glass door at night, attracted to light. Had its abdomen curled up like the Warm-chevroned Moth (1) I photographed a few weeks ago.

ID'd using Covell (2) and this MPG Living Plate.
