Gerhard's underwing - Catocala herodias

Gerhard's underwing - Catocala herodias
Great Beach Hill, Great Island, Cape Cod National Seashore, Barnstable County, Massachusetts, USA
July 25, 2009
This was one of three specimens of this state-listed subspecies that came to a blacklight set up by Jeff Boettner and myself on a wonderfully clear, humid, slightly-breezy night. The habitat is essentially all pitch pine with a few scattered scrub oaks.
