Yellow-collared Scape Moth
Hello Folks, I hope all is well. I am surprised that this late in the year I am still able to discover new insects to photograph. I have seen several moths on your website similar to the yellow- collared scape moth that I found this morning. I did a little internet searching and found out the exact species – am I correct? Take Care,
Janet from Dundas, Ontario

Hi Again Janet,
Your Yellow Collared Scape Moth goes by the scientific name Cisseps fulvicollis. Adults can be found from May through October. They don’t die out until the killing frost.
