Hi All,
As of July 16, I now have all of my hatchling larvae out in sleeves. There will be a bit of a lull for the next 2-3 weeks and then things will become extremely busy here again.

Many thanks to Tim Loeffler who confirms collecting the following species in Whitley County, Indiana: Actias luna; Eacles imperialis; Sphingicapa bicolor; Antheraea polyphemus; Automeris io; Hyalophora cecropia; Callosamia promethea; Callosamia angulifera.

Sphingidae Express
Matthew J. Campbell has sent me images of early instar Sphinx vashti. I hope to get them posted very soon.

Catocala Capers
Tim Loeffler of Whitley County, Indiana, has sent me extensive collecting data for his county as well as many images, including some firsts:
Verso image of Catocala illecta
verso image of Catocala dulciola
verso images of male and female Catocala maestosa
verso image of male Catocala robinsoni
It is very nice to receive these verso images, and in many cases they provide id clues for some of the more difficult species.
