HITCHED ARCHES, TUFTED BIRD-DROPPING MOTH, PINK-BARRED PSEUDEUSTROTIA, Flame-Shouldered Moth, and American Angle Shades

Pink-barred Pseudeustrotia moth. The pink color is very subtle. 

Hitched Arches. A very boldly-patterned moth. 

I find Pink-barred Pseudeustrotia moths every month from May through September. 

Another Hitched Arches at my UV lights. 

This is a Tufted Bird-dropping Moth, an excellent bird dropping mimic. 

Another Hitched Arches. These moths show up at my lights in May and June, and then again in August. 

Flame-shouldered Dart. These moths have distinctive yellow streaks on the outer edges of their wings. They come to my lights every month from April through September. 

American Angle Shades. Their colors are variable. Some individuals look very purplish, like this one, and others are more grayish (below). 

I have found a few Tufted Bird-dropping Moths at my lights in June and July. 

Another American Angle Shades, not as colorful as the one above. These moths have visited my lights a couple of times from May through July.
