Snow-veined Antler moth, 11:57am - Apamea niveivenosa
Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
July 7, 2008
Size: Medium
The name I made up comes from a moth in Europe with very similar patterns, the deer antler is visible very well, alot more than in the European species Cerapteryx graminis.

I.D. from here: http://www.cbif.gc.ca/noctuoidea/jpgs/image_e.php?image%5B%5D=109374.jpg%2CApamea+niveivenosa

Snowy-veined
makes a very nice name though this one isn't really "snowy".
Thanks.
