MothsID of moth
Having trouble IDing this moth we found during the Shenandoah NP July 4 Butterfly Count. We are interested in everything so would like to know what kind of moth this is. Thanks,

Hi George,
This is a Tiger Moth in the genus Grammia, probably the Parthenice Tiger Moth, Grammia parthenice, or the Virgin Tiger Moth, Grammia virgo. Seeing the underwings would have helped with a more exact identification.
