Description:

Olive thorax with white sides. Olive primary upper wings (they have markings but cannot discern while moth is in motion); underwings have a dark brownish red top surface. Abdomen is dark olive on back with 4 distinct white bands, and 1 partial white band. Feeding on phlox. In action, it looks like the same species I photographed previously.
