The Mulberry Wing
The family Notodontidae, or prominents, figured very prominently in the moth roster at the James Ramsay Hunt Sanctuary the weekend of May 22-23, so the choice of family to furnish the MOW was clear. However, I'm going to go back to May 15 for the species that I want to use. This is Clostera apicalis, which you can see is easily identified by a prominent figure.
