Orthosia hibisci, the speckled green fruitworm moth, is a moth of the family Noctuidae. It is found in most of North America,[2] except in desert regions. The habitat consists of moist forests, riparian, agricultural and urban areas.

The wingspan is 30–38 mm. The colour ranges from pale buff-grey to dark red-brown. The forewing pattern is also highly variable, from almost non-patterned to strongly banded forms. Adults are on wing from late March to April in one generation per year.[3]

The larvae feed on various hardwood plants, including species in the families Aceraceae, Ericaceae, Betulaceae, Rhamnaceae, Rosaceae, Caprifoliaceae, Fagaceae and Salicaceae.[4]
