The army cutworm is the immature form of Euxoa auxiliaris. Together with other moths that are locally abundant and that have scales that dislodge from the wings, the adult moth is called a miller moth.
These native North American larvae consume emerging small grains, alfalfa, and canola in the Great Plains and southern Canada.
On dry, low elevation rangelands of the U.S. Intermountain West, army cutworms consume exotic cheatgrass (Bromus tectorum) and mustards to produce cheatgrass "die-offs." Within these bare areas, the larvae also defoliate native shrubs including four-wing saltbush (Atriplex canescens) and sagebrush (Artemisia spp.).
Army cutworms have only one generation per year. Adult moths lay eggs in the fall at low elevations in the Great Plains and U.S. Intermountain West. Larvae hatch in late fall and feed, mostly at night, through the winter and into spring.
The larvae pupate in the soil in late spring and emerge as adult miller moths. The moths soon migrate to high elevations for the summer. Miller moths are a seasonal nuisance during their seasonal migrations through states including Montana, Idaho, Nevada, Texas, Oklahoma, Colorado, Wyoming, New Mexico, and Kansas.
