I found this inchworm feeding on wild sarsaparilla on May 26, and this was the last photo I took of it before it burrowed into soil. I just found the adult (male) dead and decomposing in the rearing jar yesterday, and unfortunately there isn't much of a wing pattern left, but I'm hoping someone will recognize either the larva or the genitalia... see full series of photos at: https://bugguide.net/node/view/2310096

Same location as @slamonde 's previous observation: https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/170730088
This individual was a little worse for the wear. I observed the patches of pickerelweed for almost an hour and a half before finally seeing this lone individual. Habitat is a small lake with abundant emergent vegetation. 3-4 small patches of pickerelweed were present. Dufourea novaeangliae also found (photos coming).

This one is quite hairy and rusty, but I think it is still frosted elfin.

On 5/20/2020, I found a caterpillar on Ulmus americana. I collected it, and reared it on leaves in a plastic vial in the garage. It sewed leaves loosely around itself and pupated 6/4/2020. The adult eclosed 6/19/2020.
Photo date: 6/3/2020.

Moth on right is a snowberry clearwing (Hemaris diffinis). The other moth (separate observation) is a hummingbird clearwing (Hemaris thysbe). There's a third species (graceful clearwing, Hemaris gracilis) in the area but I haven't seen it yet. Per my understanding, one way to tell them apart is foreleg color:
whitish legs: thysbe
black legs: diffinis
reddish legs: gracilis
If you are in western USA (CO and beyond), you swap "thetis" for "diffinis". More details at BugGuide. If legs are hidden but you have crisp photo of wings, see this page for any way to distinguish all three species.
