Plume moth

Gardens, fields, and forest edges where larval host plants are present

Larvae typically feed on the leaves, stems, or flowers of specific host plants; adults feed on flower nectar.

Easily identified by their T-shaped resting posture with wings held perpendicular to the body. They are primarily nocturnal or crepuscular.

Generally harmless to humans; larvae can be minor agricultural or garden pests, while adults contribute to pollination.
