New England Moths

This gallery represents moths that were found mainly under my porch light in Carver, Massachusetts. Photos were taken of the moth where it was found. The idea is to show what critters are we can find if we just take some time to look for them. I am a wildlife biologist but not an entomologist. I welcome corrections to my identifications. Names that are * have been identified by the generous experts at BAMONA, the Butterfly and Moths of North America group.
