    Anointed Sallow, anointed sallow moth

    Pyreferra ceromatica, the anointed sallow moth, is a noctuid moth native to North America. The species was described by Augustus Radcliffe Grote in 1874. Northern populations, including those in Connecticut, are believed to be extirpated; the state lists it as a species of special concern. Southern populations persist and remain associated with witch-hazel host plants.
