Sure. What's the trick to posting photos? I've forgotten. Don

Larry Not to belabor this topic, since you IDed the moth, but I am really grateful for your zeroing in on it. One reason I was so interested was because I hadn't seen the moth before, and I see from the map it's been commonly found two states west of Georgia, in Missouri. OTOH, we do have apple trees, blueberry bushes, clover and plenty of dandelions. Those are apparently some of the host plants they feed on, not beans, so the moth probably wasn't on an egg-laying mission and was roosting, as you say. We also have two pear trees not far from the garden that they may have been attracted to, though they aren't listed as a host plant for the larvae. (Scopula limboundata) Larvae feed on the leaves of a variety of plants, including apple trees, blueberries, clovers, dandelions, wild cherry trees. http://www.hsu.edu/content.aspx?id=6587 As for the caterpillar, if they're chewing on my vegetable crops and there aren't too many of them, I like to hand-remove them and toss them out where they can be recycled into the local bird-diets. If there's an infestation of them that I can't keep down to a dull roar, I have Bt in my arsenal of insecticides.

Just a guess, it is a little hard to tell. Not sure what part of Florida you are in but I believe the virginia creeper sphinx is known to live here, at least in some of Florida.

Someone is getting lazy with the moth ID of this showy little moth, or they are just testing us! It's obviously the Tailless Mini-Luna Moth. Or try "wavy-lined emerald", a geometrid. There are two or three other regional emerald moths, it could be one of them. (This moth would measure 1/2" per wing, total wingspan 1" or slightly more) I wish there were emerald moths out here. The above moth is a nice specimen, complete fringe. Consider submitting some of your moth photos to Mr. Patterson of the Eastern Moth Photographer's Group.
