The Cincta Moth
The following information is from a text reference, not at all from my experience, as I have none with this particular moth. My information in my other format will be posted as it becomes available.
The Cincta moth is a rare visitor to Arizona. The larva feed on Privet, Cherry, and Lilac. Larva are gregarious at first and become solitary with time.
