    Could it be Helicoverpa armigera? Or, something else in that genus? Posted 4 years ago

The Cotton bollworm moth

The cotton bollworm is a moth, the larvae of which feed on a wide range of plants, including many important cultivated crops. It is a major pest in cotton and one of the most polyphagous and cosmopolitan pest species. It should not be confused with the similarly named, related species "Helicoverpa zea".
