There are over 200 species of underwing moths, mostly found in eastern North America. They are so called because the second set of wings, those only visible when flying, are bright patterns of orange, yellow red and white, while their first set of wings are usually a mix of gray and brown patterns. Experiments have shown that the moths actually choose trees with bark similar to their own color to better protect themselves.
