Spragueia onagrus, 02 June 2014

Spragueia onagrus, the Black-dotted spragueia moth;
Volusia county, Florida (02 June 2014).

Mostly limited to Florida and some other stretches of the southeastern U.S. coastline, the Black-spotted spragueia is a tiny species of Family Noctuidae. As bright as it may appear here, they’re actually quite easy to miss on a day-to-day basis. This is a fairly tiny moth that quietly goes about its business hidden in otherwise-plain sight.
