On the night of May 31st, a moth flew into my home after the door was left open by accident. I noticed that it was attracted to light and preferred to hang around the light bulbs in the house. It also flew really fast and it was hard to catch. The scientific name for this moth is Digrammia ocellinata. The Faint-spotted Angle is a member of Kingdom Animalia (Animals), Phylum Arthropoda (Arthropods), Subphylum Hexapoda (Hexapods), Class Insecta (Insects), Subclass Pterygota (Winged and Once Winged Insects), Order Lepidoptera (Butterflies and Moths), Superfamily Geometroidea (Geometrid and Swallowtail Moths), Family Geometridae (Geometer Moths), Subfamily Ennominae, Tribe Macariini (Angle Moths and Allies) and Genus Digrammia. I thought it was fascinating that the moth blended in with my carpet so well.
