2 years ago i found one of these near the place i found this one. i didnt have a camera at that time and thats when i started web searching to name that moth. anyhow when i saw what i had knowing the differences i sent to Bill O to confirm and here is his reply:
Edna,
The Hyalophora is a surprise that I will add to the distribution maps. it is H. columbia gloveri which is well known from eastern Oregon, but not so far west as Josephine county.
Thanks for images.
Bill Oehlke
