The dorsal surfaces of their wings are mottled brown with hints of iridescent purple and pink, and, in females, crossed by a white bar. The diagnostic marking is a small spot on each forewing shaped like a number nine or a comma. This spot is often green with orange highlights. Males are somewhat smaller, reaching 12&#160;cm in width, darker in color and lacking the white bar crossing the wings. The larva is a large caterpillar up to 7&#160;cm in length with intricate patterns of black and greenish-brown spots and stripes. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Geographical_range">Geographical range</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Ascalapha_odorata&amp;action=edit&amp;section=2" title="Edit section: Geographical range"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Black_Witch_Moths_Kaua%E2%80%99i.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/7b/Black_Witch_Moths_Kaua%E2%80%99i.jpg/220px-Black_Witch_Moths_Kaua%E2%80%99i.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="165" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/7b/Black_Witch_Moths_Kaua%E2%80%99i.jpg/330px-Black_Witch_Moths_Kaua%E2%80%99i.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/7b/Black_Witch_Moths_Kaua%E2%80%99i.jpg/440px-Black_Witch_Moths_Kaua%E2%80%99i.jpg 2x" data-file-width="4032" data-file-height="3024" /></a><figcaption>Black witch moths in Hawaii</figcaption></figure> <p>The black witch lives from the <a href="/wiki/Southern_United_States" title="Southern United States">southern United States</a>, <a href="/wiki/Mexico" title="Mexico">Mexico</a> and <a href="/wiki/Central_America" title="Central America">Central America</a> to <a href="/wiki/Brazil" title="Brazil">Brazil</a>,<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> and has apparently been introduced to <a href="/wiki/Hawaii" title="Hawaii">Hawaii</a>.<sup class="noprint Inline-Template Template-Fact" style="white-space:nowrap;">&#91;<i><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed"><span title="This claim needs references to reliable sources.

In many cultures, one of these moths flying into the house is considered bad luck: e.g., in <a href="/wiki/Mexico" title="Mexico">Mexico</a>, when there is sickness in a house and this moth enters, it is believed the sick person will die, though a variation on this theme (in the lower <a href="/wiki/Rio_Grande_Valley_(Texas)" class="mw-redirect" title="Rio Grande Valley (Texas)">Rio Grande Valley</a>, Texas) is that death only occurs if the moth flies in and visits all four corners of one's house (in Mesoamerica, from the pre-Hispanic era until the present time, moths have been associated with death and the number four). In some parts of Mexico, people joke that if one flies over someone's head, the person will lose his hair. </p><p>In <a href="/wiki/Jamaica" title="Jamaica">Jamaica</a>, under the name <i>duppy bat</i>, the black witch is seen as the embodiment of a lost soul or a soul not at rest.

In the Ecuadorian highlands they are called Tandacuchi and in Peru Taparacuy or Taparaco.
