Sue, gee I didn't look at it's face to know if it has the triangle thingy.

You mean to tell me you didn't ask it to face the camera and smile

OK, this is another picture of a Spodoptera, from the moth photographers' group, and it does show a black dot. Is that dot in the right place?:

Not saying that it's necessarily that exact species of Spodoptera, there's at least one other that is similar, but these pics are an example of the black dot.
