Chocolate Prominent moth, found May 12, 2018 at Hocking Hills (eastern Ohio). I have not yet found this moth at my home lights, but it was a neat find for a chocoholic like me!
Another Black-rimmed Prominent moth, photographed on April 24, 2022. These are the only two Black-rimmed Prominents I have found so far.
Another Double-toothed Prominent, resting on a stick. This moth's disruptive camouflage pattern makes it look like peeling bark or a broken twig.
