The totally black head and body are characteristic of Amata sp.

Can CNM please consolidate 'Amata (genus)' with 'Amata sp.' and 'Amata sp. (genus)' ?

I amalgamated them all under Amata (genus), and that was in stable use for a long time. Then "Amata sp." was added again. I'll ask Michael B. if it's safe to just merge the Amata sp. into Amata (genus)
