Size: apx. 20 mm long
I think this is Hodges #8241 – Euchaetes bolteri, but it also looks like Hodges #8243 – Euchaetes albicosta. How do you tell the difference?

Moved from Tiger Moths.

I now feel comfortable with this placement. I raised eggs from this specimen, but got only female offspring. However, I have now captured two males at my sheet , one paired with a female, and raised one batch of eggs and gotten a male offspring.
