Catocala amatrix
This striking Catocola amatrix moth has pinkish-red on the underwing so I'm assuming that's how
it got it's nickname of "The Sweetheart". Poplars and willows are their food of choice in the pupa
stage. This one was snoozing under my porch light in Taylorsville, UT ©Carol Davis, 8-27-2008
