How you want your letter signed: Travis
Dear Travis,
We searched through the plates on Pacific Northwest Moths are we believe we have identified your Prominent Moth as a Western Furcula, Furcula occidentalis (see this plate) and we verified its identity on BugGuide. According to BugGuide: “adults fly from April to August” and “larvae feed mostly on willow, and sometimes poplar.”
