Plume Moth

Found in gardens, meadows, and indoors near windows or light sources; common in both urban and rural areas.

Adults feed on flower nectar; larvae (caterpillars) typically feed on the foliage of morning glory (Convolvulaceae) and hedge bindweed.

Known for resting with their wings rolled up and held at right angles to the body, creating a characteristic T-shape; they are nocturnal and attracted to artificial lights.

Harmless to humans and pets; provides ecosystem benefits as a pollinator and a food source for insectivorous birds and bats.
