Underwing Moth—Drasteria sp. - Drasteria ingeniculata
Hutchinson , Reno County, Kansas, USA
August 6, 2020
Size: ~40 mm
Attracted to an incandescent porch light at 10:30 PM. It was associated with 3 other underwing moths, one of which was a Locust Underwing. The two others are phenotypically different (under the same light and time). The specific site of the photo was the Northern suburb of Hutchinson, KS.
