Steve Nanz provided the following:
Aterpia approximana
head color is mostly brown
thorax is mostly brown
palpi are mostly brown
• Hedya cyanana
head color is blackish, blueish, purplish, brown or any mix.
thorax is never mostly brown
palpi are never mostly brown
The problem is that head, thorax and palpi can be a very dark brown for approximana making it difficult to tell tell color. That is not the case for Angella’s moth.
