Piti, June 16, at light, Usinger; Asan, Nov. 2, a chrysalis found in webbed leaf on Erythrina indica, moth issued Nov. 9, Swezey. A few small caterpillars on an Erythrina tree at Agat, Oct. 17, may have been this species but we were not successful in rearing them. The tree was nearly defoliated, as though the caterpillars had been very abundant previously. There is one specimen in U. S. National Museum and one in Bishop Museum, Fullaway, 1911.

This fine large moth has a wide distribution from Africa throughout the Oriental region to New Guinea and Australia, and to Fiji and Samoa. We record it for the first time in Guam.
