Heitzman's Dagger Moth (Acronicta heitzmani) is a moth of the Noctuidae family. It is found in Missouri, Arkansas, Illinois and Ohio. The length of the forewings is 12-14.5 mm for males and 12.5 15 mm for females. A moth is an insect closely related to the butterfly, both being of the order Lepidoptera. Moths form the majority of this order; there are thought to be 150,000 to 250,000 different species of moth (about ten times the number of species of butterfly), with thousands of species yet to be described.
