Unknown moth/butterfly. - Apantesis phalerata Maplesville, Chilton County, Alabama, USA April 21, 2011 Size: 1 inch
Attracted to porch light at night. The most colorful/flashiest moth I've ever seen. Closest thing I can find in ID books: Ornate Tiger Moth (not native to Alabama). Virgin Tiger Moth -- Did not see red hind wings.
