New York moths I need ID'ed

[maslo63]

Hey everyone, I'm writing an article about local moths and also taking photographs of them. I've been able to ID most of them myself but have a few I need help with. Also, is there a good moth ID book anyone can recommend?

All the moths were photographed in central NY.

And a few more, sorry if this is a bit overwhelming.

I was able to find some of your moths in my book Moths of Eastern North America. On your first post the 4th photo is a male Gypsy Moth (Lymantria dispar). On the second post 2nd photo is Wheat Head Army Warm (Faronta diffusa), 5th photo is Yellow Headed Cutworm (Apamea amputatrix). If you would like to try identifing the other moths your self go to web site Moth photografers group. But if I have time I will try to ID the rest for you. I wish you luck with your artical. I am glad you are giving moths some attention when butterflies seem to get it all.

I can't open your photographs, but go to Moth Photographers Group. You should be able to find them.

Thanks for the help guys. That website looks pretty useful, also a bit daunting. I'm sure it will help.
Bluemoth, I feel the same way. Butterflies get all the hype but there are some amazing moths out there.
