This moth was in my bodega in October....here in La Manzanilla.
According to Pablo:
It’s called the Black Witch Moth (Ascalapha odorata) or Mariposa de la Muerta in Mexico, where it’s considered a harbinger of death. It also just happens to be THE largest species in North America in the enormous family called Noctuidae.
Thanks again to Pablo for the info.
