Jean,
There's lots of variation in Harnessed Tiger Moth - Hodges#8169 (Apantesis
phalerata). I suspect both of your moths are 8169.

I have a question about Harnessed Moths. How much variation is there in this
species? The attached pic shows two moths. The one at the bottom is a
Harnessed Moth. The one at the top is not worn at all, yet has no white lines
on the trailing edge of the forewing. There are only three major white lines.
Also, it had more red than the other Harnessed Moths that were present during
last summer. Maybe this is a Grammia?
