These images introduce our local Phosphila, Armyworm, Wedgeling, Rustic, Miranda, and Angle Shade Moths (Family Noctuidae, Subfamily Noctuinae, Tribes Pseudeusrotrotiini, Prodeniini, Elaphriini, Caradrinini, and Phlogophorini). The 11 moths shown here represent seven genera and eight species, all of which were found and photographed in northeastern North Dakota.
See if you can identity a few of these moths by matching these images with those found on pages 428-439 of the Peterson Field Guide to Moths of Northeastern North America.
