Eyed Paectes - Paectes oculatrix
Town of Plymouth, Sheboygan County, Wisconsin, USA
July 8, 1996
Adult came to night light, the only time I've ever seen it. ID from Covell's book, Plate 31, #16. Host plant is Poison Ivy. I would like to rear the larva, but don't think it would be wise to be working with that plant. Would like to see a photo of the larva, if anyone has ever found it.
