Hi bugman, Can you help me identify this moth? Perhaps a Fall webworm moth? Thanks for the help!

Hi weisey,
Your moth has the descriptive common name of Dot Lined White, and the scientific name is Artace cribraria. The Dot Lined White is a member of the Lappet Moth and Tent Caterpillar family.
Hi Daniel, thanks so much for the id! Have a great day! S. Cyd “weisey” Read
I found this moth on my bed this morning in Devon England
Our guess is that you observed a native to England Tiger Moth known as the White Ermine, Spilosoma lubricipeda, which is pictured on both UK Moths and Simply Birds and Moths.
Live in eastern NY State, and have a similar moth on my back deck, but it is solid white. Never saw one like this before.
i saw one of these at my school in Wales a while back. it looked exactly like the picture.
Saw this moth this morning in Newport, North Carolina.
Large whitish moth on my cordyline Torquay Devon England. Looks identical to dot lined white moth.
