Inconsolable Underwing, lateral - Catocala insolabilis

French Creek WMA, Allamakee County, Iowa, USA
May 31, 2012

Team effort: Found by T. Haindfield who gave it to M. Leoschke who brought it to me to try and rear. Unfortunately it had a lateral (other side) gash. We gave it bitternut hickory, Carya cordiformis leaves and it did weave them together but I've not opened them to look.

6/15/12 ID confirmed.
