Euxoa intermontana
Euxoa intermontana is a species of owlet moth in the family Noctuidae, described by Lafontaine in 1975. As a member of the genus Euxoa, it belongs to a group commonly known as darts or cutworms. The species name "intermontana" (between mountains) suggests an association with intermountain regions. Like other Euxoa species, the larvae likely exhibit cutworm behavior, feeding on vegetation and potentially curling into a C-shape when disturbed. However, specific ecological details for this particular species remain poorly documented in available sources.
