Hydraecia medialis is a noctuid moth native to western North America. Adults are active from mid-August through September and are characterized by pale gray-tan forewings with a darker, often reddish median area and distinctive red-brown or brown and white postmedial line. The species inhabits open ponderosa pine forests, drier sagebrush steppe, and juniper woodlands across a range extending from British Columbia to northern New Mexico.
