Apantesis incorrupta

Apantesis incorrupta is an arctiine moth in the family Erebidae,[1] described by Henry Edwards in 1881.

It is found from southern Colorado and south-eastern Kansas south through Arizona, New Mexico and western Texas into Mexico and west to south-eastern California.

There are two generations per year with adults on wing from late April to early October.

[2] The larvae feed on a wide range of herbaceous, flowering plants, including Fallugia paradoxa.

[3][4] Recent research[5] has shown that the larvae of Grammia incorrupta consume alkaloid-laden leaves that help fight off internal parasitic fly larvae.
