Spotted Apatelodes
Apatelodes torrefacta
29.1872, -82.1401
Field Notes
Description:
A truly bizarre moth. About 1.5 inches across. Wings look like crumpled dried leaves. Abdomen held bent upward, arched over its back. Legs very furry.
Habitat:
Front window. My home is in Florida Longleaf Pine/Turkey Oak Sandhill habitat.
Notes:
I think the photo I took of the moth's underside makes it look like a small dragon.... yes?
