unspotted looper? Pls. see comments - Allagrapha aerea
evansville, Vanderburgh County, Indiana, USA
February 27, 2014
I am fairly certain that this is the unspotted looper moth (Allagrapha aerea). I included an image of the caterpillar which I raised since receiving it 2-1-14. Host plant: Plectranthus 'Mona Lavender'. It spun a cocoon and became a pupa 2-10-14 and today the moth eclosed. ID much appreciated....thanks.
