		<description><![CDATA[Sandy found this moth indoors, fluttering around the lights in the bathroom, on July 15, 2011. It was a pretty good-sized moth, with a body about 2 cm long (almost an inch). While it was found in the house, it was our fault that it was inside. You see, Sam and Rosie like to play [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This white moth came to our porch light on July 4, 2011. Its wings look a bit ratty at the edges, so this was probably near the end of its life. Which suggests that the main flight period for this species was probably earlier, maybe most of the month of June. After a bit of [...]]]></description>

It was reasonably good-sized (about two centimeters long), but almost utterly lacking in anything I can use as identifying features. Here it is on Sam&#8217;s fingers, with its wings a bit spread: Its most [...]]]></description>

She was greatly displeased with them &#8211; the bush they were on was only about a foot tall, and just two of the caterpillars were coming close to completely stripping the plant.

They looked big enough to be ready to pupate, so we tried rearing them in a jar. Unfortunately, they died (possibly because we didn&#8217;t know their correct foodplant) so we never [...]]]></description>

The background in these photos is a kleenex, by the way. It liked to pose with its head end elevated and its front legs tucked in. [...]]]></description>

It also had a fringe of kind of fleshy protrusions along its belly, which is an odd feature in an inchworm [...]]]></description>
