Black-Bordered Lemon Moth

Adult, Black-Bordered Lemon Moths are yellow, and their wings have a black edge. There are no other lines present. There usually are two dark dots on each forewing. The forewings are often bright yellow with a lustrous or glossy look. The hindwings tend to be more muted. Larvae will be found where their host plants live, which can include lawns, pastures, grasslands, and wetlands — places where numerous grasses and sedges grow. The adults are nocturnal fliers that are attracted to lights.
