Your letter to the bugman: Hi, my fiancée woke me up this morning to show me this moth, which neither of us have ever seen before in this region.

Dear Thomas,
This is a Lappet Moth in the genus Tolype, but we are uncertain of the species. According to BugGuide: ” there is considerable variation among individuals and between the sexes of all Tolype species, which complicates identification of species based on color.”
Thank you very much for your research. Have a wonderful day!
Best,
Thomas
