Confused haploa (Haploa confusa)

Several of these pretty brown and white moths came to the sheets. The pattern on this species varies greatly, giving rise, I guess, to the name of Confused haploa. Certainly confuses those of us trying to ID these moths when it can so radically different! We find their caterpillars in great numbers around the FWG early in the spring, often on Houndstongue. I have been looking for these guys for a few weeks now, as you can often find them during the day.
