Kerr's noctuid moth
Kerr's noctuid moth was a species of moth in the family Noctuidae. It is now extinct.
This moth was endemic to the French Frigate Shoals in the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands.
The larvae have been recorded on Boerhaavia tetrandra and Poriulaca oleracea. The caterpillar had a length of about 50 mm when full-grown. It resembled the caterpillar of Agrotis crinigera except that the head was paler and almost entirely pale yellowish testaceous with a slender black line along the paraclypeal suture, where A. crinigera has quite a wide blackish mark. The cervical shield is also paler than that of A. crinigera.
