MothsCan you tell me who this is?
Saw this guy on a very windy mid-morning, November, in North Central Florida, clinging to that piece of grass like his life depended on it.

Hi Tim,
We first searched superficially, and today more thoroughly, to identify your beautiful moth which we believe to be an Arctiid Moth. Sadly we can’t get a conclusive species for you despite those distinctive white wing spots. We will continue to search and post the image on Bugguide.
Moments after posting on Bugguide, Tony Thomas wrote in with the following identification: “Looks like a Tiger moth but is a Geometrid, White-tipped Black Melanchroia chephise “
