Coordinator notes: I can see where iNat would have selected Eueretagrotis parattentus. But when you look at the seasonality chart, notice that Eueretagrotis parattentus has a flight time of May-August while Xestia badicollis has a flight time from July to part of October. Eueretagrotis parattentus also has a dark collar.
Here are the comparison charts.
