Catocala whitneyi
Whitney's Underwing
Catocala whitneyi is an underwing moth in the family Erebidae, first described by G. M. Dodge in 1874. Adults have a wingspan of 45–50 mm and are active from July to August in a single generation. The species is notable for its cryptic forewings that conceal brightly patterned hindwings, a defensive trait common to the genus Catocala.
