Paraseptis

Paraseptis is a monotypic moth genus in the family Noctuidae erected by Tomas Mustelin and Lars G. Crabo in 2015.

It is widely distributed along the Pacific Coast from northern Mexico to south-western British Columbia in a variety of forested habitats.

Adults are gray brown, and have a full complement of dark lines and spots and a pale postreniform patch.

The basal dash is thicker black than that of Aseptis binotata and extends fully to the antemedial line.

In the Pacific Northwest, P. adnixa is typically patchy brown, often with a reddish tint, with a large pale-ochre postreniform patch and contrasting black markings.
