''Catocala amatrix'', the sweetheart underwing, is a moth of the Erebidae family. The species can be found from Nova Scotia, south through Connecticut to Florida and west through Texas and Oklahoma to Arizona and north to Montana, Minnesota, and Ontario. An exhibition model done by the Denton Brothers of Wellesley, Massachusetts was discovered in a consignment shop in Flagler Beach, Florida on September 12, 2013 by Brittany Durocher, a resident of that city. It was collected by the Denton Brothers in Virginia and named ''Catocala amatrix virginurus''. The wingspan is 75–95 mm. The moths flies from August to October depending on the location. The larvae feed on ''Populus deltoides'', ''Populus grandidenta'', ''Populus nigra'', ''Populus tremuloides'', and ''Salix nigra''. ==Gallery== File:Denton Brothers display of Catocala Amatrix Virginurus.jpg|picture of the specimen found by Ms. Durocher File:Inscription on edge of a Denton Brothers specimen.jpg|Attribution to the Denton Brothers File:Catocala amatrix 2154069.jpg File:Catocala nurus.JPG|Lectotype of ''Catocala nurus'', now considered to be a synonym of ''Catocala amatrix'' 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Catocala amatrix」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
