Noctuid Moth, Heliothis phloxiphaga
Caterpillars of the noctuid moth, Heliothis phloxphaga,
have been found in high numbers on some shade tree species in Oregon during
2008. They have been found on Malus, Prunus, and Ulmus species.
These caterpillars have a wide host range, though, and growers should
also look for them on other host plants including herbacious plants such
as Achillea, Antirrhinum, Aster, and Phlox.
