Black and cream tiger moth with red underwings - Apantesis incorrupta - Female
La Puebla, Santa Fe County, New Mexico, USA
June 22, 2011
Size: 2.5 cm long?
A friend found this in her house, apparently moribund. The surrounding area is sandy; I could mention some plants if it would help. Altitude about 1800 m.

Grammia nevadensis? It seems to be the most likely, based on range.

I'll move this tomorrow if no one identifies it first, but I'm leaving it here for now in case any visitors to the site are interested.

Thanks
to Dave and Paul. Of course, I saw at once that it was uncorrupted... :-)
