I forgot to add that this has been a good year for Sphinx spp. for me.

I've only seen 2 Bent-lines with the first on 10/1 and the second last night 
(the only moth on the sheets). The most common moth on or actually near the 
sheets for the past 6 weeks has been Idia americalis. If I include what I see 
away from the lights, the most common moth was Spodoptera frugiperda but about 
5 days ago, they virtually disappeared.

I've had a total of 3 Choephora, all on one night.  Before the cold front which 
hit here Sunday, the most common moths were Anticarsia gemmatalis and Hypena 
scabra.

I have found the Bent-line Dart (Choephora fungorum) to be by far the most 
abundant moth now where I am located in Hardin county Kentucky. Has any one 
noticed it? What has anyone else noticed to be common. This year has been a 
poor year for Sphinx. Last year I had a good number of them. What is your input?
