Moth with white jags - Catocala andromedae

Moth with white jags - Catocala andromedae
Maplesville, Chilton County, Alabama, USA
May 27, 2018
This was a brown, black, and white moth. He had a black, scribbled, interrupted AM line. Below that he had two white orbicular spots at the inner margin. Abutting these orbicular spots on the outside were two brown reniform spots lined in black. The PM line started out very bold and squiggly from the costa and thereafter was thin, brown, and wavy to the inner margin. Likewise, the ST line started out as a bold black squiggle/smudge and turned brown and wavy to the inner margin. Under the ST line there was a band of white shading and under that a wider band of brown shading. The terminal line was a series of black dots and there were dark brown crease-like vertical lines crisscrossing the area of brown shading to these dots. He had intermittent brown fringe.
