''Polychrysia morigera'', the disjunct looper, is a moth of the family Noctuidae. The species was first described by Henry Edwards in 1886. In the east of North America, it is found in the Mississippi, Missouri, and Ohio river valleys from Pennsylvania to Tennessee. In the Rocky Mountains it is found from Montana to Colorado and on the west coast it occurs from Oregon to northern California. It is the rarest of the North American Plusiinae species. The wingspan The wingspan (or just span) of a bird or an airplane is the distance from one wingtip to the other wingtip. For example, the Boeing 777–200 has a wingspan of , and a wandering albatross (''Diomedea exulans'') caught in 1965 had a wingspan of ... is 28–31 mm. Adults are on wing from June to July. The larvae have only been recorded on '' Delphinium trolliifolium''. Covell and Medley (1986) reported adults trapped in the labellum of '' Cypripedium kentuckiense''.

With few exceptions, animals Heterotroph, consume organic material, Cellular respiration#Aerobic respiration, breathe oxygen, are Motility, able to move, can Sexual reproduction, reproduce sexually, and go through an ontogenetic stage in which their body consists of a hollow sphere of Cell (biology), cells, the blastula, during Embryogenesis, embryonic development. Over 1.5 million Extant taxon, living animal species have been Species description, described—of which around 1 million are Insecta, insects—but it has been estimated there are over 7 million animal species in total. Animals range in length from to . They have Ecology, complex interactions with each other and their environments, forming intricate food webs. The scientific study of animals is known as zoology.

Members of this genus are commonly referred to as lady's slipper orchids. Originally thought to be an aberrant form of ''Cypripedium parviflorum'' var. ''pubescens'', the Morphology (biology), morphology of ''C. kentuckiense'' suggests it is a species of its own. However, molecular evidence suggests that ''C. kentuckiense'' is more closely related to ''Cypripedium parviflorum'' var. ''parviflorum'' than it is to ''Cypripedium parviflorum'' var. ''pubescens''. Description ''C. kentuckiense'' has the largest flower of in the genus Cypripedium ''Cypripedium'' is a genus of 58 species and nothospecies of hardy Orchidaceae, orchids; it is one of five genera that together compose the subfamily of lady's slipper orchids (Cypripedioideae).
