Plagiomimicus spumosum, the frothy moth, is a moth of the family Noctuidae. The species was first described by Augustus Radcliffe Grote in 1874. It is found in North America, where it has a transcontinental range in the United States, north to southern Ontario and southern Alberta.[1] The wingspan is 33–40 mm. Adults are on wing in mid-summer in one generation per year. The larvae feed on Helianthus annuus. They burrow into the head of the host plant and feed on the seeds.[2] References
