Euxoa infracta

Euxoa infracta is a species of cutworm moth in the family Noctuidae, described by Morrison in 1875. As a member of the genus Euxoa, it belongs to a group of noctuid moths whose larvae are known as cutworms, feeding on plant stems and roots. The species occurs in central and western Canada, with documented records from Alberta, Manitoba, and Saskatchewan. Like related Euxoa species, the larvae likely exhibit nocturnal feeding behavior and may curl into a C-shape when disturbed.
