Hemileuca tricolor
SE of San Manuel, Pinal County, Arizona, USA
February 18, 2012
This is a composite (photomerge) of 4 separate images all captured at 1:1 magnification. The photo was taken at same location as the other 2 adults from 1998 in the Hemileuca tricolor account, in fact I was visiting the photographer of those images!
There seems to be relatively few images of this interesting appearing moth on-line.
