The Soft-lined Wave (Scopula inductata) is a moth of the family Geometridae. It is found in North America, east of the Rocky Mountains, from Newfoundland to the coast of British Columbia, north to the Northwest Territories, south to Alabama and at least Utah.
The wingspan is 20–25 mm. The wings are light yellowish-gray, crossed by several gray wavy lines. The outer edges of the wings are rounded. There is a black dot present near the middle of each wing.[2] Adults are on wing from July to September.
The larvae feed on Aster, Trifolium, Taraxacum, Ambrosia and Melilotus species.
