Available records indicate it has been documented through 36 observations on iNaturalist, though detailed biological information remains limited.
Lithophane gausapata
Cypress Pinions
Lithophane gausapata, commonly called Cypress Pinions, is a noctuid moth described by Grote in 1883. It belongs to the genus Lithophane, a group of cutworm moths often associated with coniferous forests. The species is found in North America and is part of the subfamily Noctuinae.
Nepheloleuca floridata
Nepheloleuca floridata is a species of geometrid moth described by Grote in 1883. It belongs to the subfamily Ennominae within the family Geometridae. The species has been recorded from limited localities in the southeastern United States and Mexico, suggesting a restricted distribution in subtropical regions of North America.
Pseudohadena vulnerea
cutworm moth, dart moth
Pseudohadena vulnerea is a noctuid moth species described by Augustus Radcliffe Grote in 1883. It belongs to the cutworm or dart moth group within the family Noctuidae. The species is recorded from North America and is assigned MONA/Hodges number 9577. Available information on this species remains limited, with relatively few documented observations.
Pseudorgyia russula
Pseudorgyia russula is a species of owlet moth in the family Erebidae, first described by Augustus Radcliffe Grote in 1883. It is found in North America, where it inhabits diverse terrestrial environments. As a member of the subfamily Calpinae, it belongs to a group of moths with varied feeding habits and ecological roles. The species has been documented through citizen science observations, with over 200 records contributing to knowledge of its distribution.
Pygoctenucha
Pygoctenucha is a genus of arctiine tussock moths in the family Erebidae, erected by Augustus Radcliffe Grote in 1883. The genus contains five described species distributed in North and Central America. Members are classified within the tribe Lithosiini, a group of lichen moths characterized by their relatively slender bodies and often subdued coloration. The genus has been documented through limited observations, with most records concentrated in the southwestern United States and Mexico.
Spragueia magnifica
magnificent bird dropping moth
Spragueia magnifica is a species of moth in the family Noctuidae, first described by Augustus Radcliffe Grote in 1883. It is one of approximately 20 species in the genus Spragueia, a group commonly known as bird dropping moths due to their resemblance to avian feces. The species occurs in North America and is assigned Hodges number 9121 in the North American Moth Photographers Group numbering system. Like other members of its genus, it is presumed to be nocturnal and attracted to light sources.
Trocodima fuscipes
Trocodima fuscipes is a small moth in the family Erebidae, first described by Augustus Radcliffe Grote in 1883. The species is known only from the US state of Arizona. Adults have a wingspan of 18–22 mm and have been recorded flying in April and July. It is a poorly documented species with limited available information on its biology.
