Willa :v_trans: :v_bi:This one was tricky to ID, but I'm at least 75% sure that it's a northern eudeilinia (𝘌𝘶𝘥𝘦𝘪𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘪𝘢 𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘮𝘪𝘯𝘪𝘢𝘵𝘢).

hastingsmothmanA warm day yesterday but a chilly night, and just three <a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/moth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#moth</a> visitors which was rather disappointing numerically, though all three were first sightings in 2025. Hopefully some warmer nights this week will help numbers. Three to stimulate your intellectualities today are:1) & 2) Flame Shoulder 3) Pale Mottled Willow 4) Oak Tree Pug<a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/MothsMatter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MothsMatter</a> <a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/MothMonday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MothMonday</a> <a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/lepidoptera" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#lepidoptera</a> <a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/entomology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#entomology</a> <a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/insect" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#insect</a> <a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/nature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#nature</a> <a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/wildlife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#wildlife</a> <a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/garden" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#garden</a> <a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/alttext" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#alttext</a> <a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/animal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#animal</a> <a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/creature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#creature</a> <a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/mothsandbutterflies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#mothsandbutterflies</a> <a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/bopdiversity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#bopdiversity</a> <a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/conservation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#conservation</a>

The GardenerFor <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/MothMonday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MothMonday</a> I present Nessus Sphinx (Amphion floridensis). I have soft spot for Sphinx (aka Hawk) Moths - their pollination relationship with flowers is pretty cool. Ok I may be biased given it was the subject of my masters thesis, but still. <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/moth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#moth</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/insect" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#insect</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/lepidoptera" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#lepidoptera</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/manitoba" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#manitoba</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/sphingidae" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sphingidae</a>

The GardenerFor <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/MothMonday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MothMonday</a> I give you the leaf mine of the Poison Ivy Leaf-miner Moth. As its name suggests, the larvae live in and mine the insides of Poison Ivy (Toxicodendron) leaves, clearly unaffected by the oil that so irritates human skin. The mines are relatively common around here (southern Manitoba). The adults are small but rather elegant. <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/insect" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#insect</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/lepidoptera" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#lepidoptera</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/leafminer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#leafminer</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/moth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#moth</a>

The GardenerHey, it's a Black and Yellow Lichen Moth, so named because it's a moth that's black and yellow (orange?), and the caterpillars eat lichen.*checks notes*What?!
