Very nice! I've often seen several species of Trichiotinus in my area, including lunulatus. They're nearly always on either prickly pear cactus flowers, or thistles. Most commonly, I see T. texanus -

And much less often, another trichiine, Trigonopeltastes delta -

Could be the phpbb forum, I will try to update it with the last version next week... it is not so easy to do and there is a risk of bugging the whole forum so I am always reluctant to do this kind of upgrades. Not sure it will change anything but it's worth a try.

Re: Exactly what is Hyphantria cunea?

Vernon's series of Hyphantria is impressive in that it demonstrates the variation within some taxa.

Re: Thoughts on NABA?
by Chuck » Mon Apr 29, 2024 7:50 pm
There's your problem.
Look, it is universal country-wide that one cannot catch and kill song birds, despite many having very healthy populations. Meanwhile, house cats are allowed to roam freely and have been documented to have a significant negative impact on song bird populations. One isn't allowed in most places to shoot cats that are outdoors; "environmentalist" tree huggers are fine looking the other way when it's their cats that kill birds. These same NABA people who are horrified that some citizen scientists kill butterflies are the same types with the bird depleting cats, but somehow to their logic, that's OK.

Exactly what is Hyphantria cunea?
by vabrou » Mon Apr 29, 2024 2:27 pm
The opposite phenomena concerning other common species occurs. In 1972 Ferguson reviewed the validity of names for Actias luna: nine forms and synonyms from Nova Scotia to Texas, and reducing them all to a single species due to population variation and lack of consistent and definitive distinguishable characters. Even in abundantly populated and well known species as A. luna, it is difficult to figure out exactly what are the parameters for a single species. Here in Louisiana, A. luna has five annual broods, with each brood of this species, the moths become less brilliant in color and maculation, and become paler in color, wider in wingspan, shorter in length, the fifth brood becomes very different in appearance. The broods occurring mid February into October in Louisiana. Should our field guide or even ultimate treatments in MONA have examples of all five broods, and what about the females that have the same changing characteristics. Then we should have as a minimum 10 images in a single reference book. Somewhat impractible, though here in Louisiana there are moth species with 13 annual broods.
I have published may species accounts illustrating lots of morphotype variations withing a single species. e.g.

I have attached two jpgs illustrating 58 morphotype variations involving just some of the male variations found in Hyphantria cunea here just at my home in Louisiana. There are females variations as well not illustrated here, nor are additional variations found in the first annual brood, nor are the male and female variations found in the second, third and fourth annual broods.
