Description: Helicoverpa zea - Corn Earworm - According to Wikipedia its the second most economically damaging insect pest in North America, chewing on a wide variety of crop plants. This most certainly is true, but it also not a bad looking animal when viewed close up. Perhaps we will take a little more time to think about this species now than have by simply labeling it a problem.
