Prominent moth - Oedemasia concinna

Prominent moth - Oedemasia concinna
Grand Teton NP, Teton County, Wyoming, USA
July 30, 2014

We're not sure how to separate
concinna from salicis and it sounds like the authors of the new fascicle weren't certain where the border between the species lies. This looks closer geographically to salicis, but we don't know if that means anything.

Only image I have, but I'm pretty sure you're both right about this...thanks!

Mark, I think Peter might be right, but the stripped look of this one and the slanted dark median line makes me afraid it might be a Oligocentria, so I cannot move it further.

Do you have a square lateral view?

I looked and could not find ANY that MPG says have been sighted in Wyoming, but they certainly are all around you.

Schizura
I don't have much experience with these moths, but I think this is a Schizura, perhaps #8010 Schizura concinna. But there may be others in Wyoming - what do I know here in Florida.

I apologize - this was a duplicate comment that I didn't realize to have submitted when I submitted the final version.
