Moved

Moved from Chlorosea banksaria.

Chlorosea banksaria is found in the Pacific Coast region from southern California to British Columbia and it does not have a dark discal spot on the forewing. C. banksaria has pinkish patches with white or yellowish centers along the dorsal side of the abdomen. Moving up a few levels until time for a closer look.
Thanks

range map at Moth Photographers Group

The range map at Moth Photographers Group shows a marker for the San Antonio area and this is most likely an error representing this moth photo.
Thanks

With this one, I would likely wait only b/c the banksaria photos up on the guide have more prominent red, circular spots on the thorax--yours has two small whitish spots. I know that there's always a degree of variability, so that's a possibility, as well as the possibility that your specimen is worn and lost the scales that made the color more visible. Just my thoughts, which are mostly shaped by similar comments to me about my own photos here.
