The truth is I don't know but I am trying to find out. Have sent some to BOLD in the last bunch and will send more next time based on my results. This Tribe is really confusing to me and I think Khyl might agree with your species selection. However, it is not at ALL like the ones that have been identified for me as A. parvulalis. I can see that Rob Curtis's photo on MPG could look like it, but yours looks more like Cacotherpia unipuncta to me. I have sent some Cacotherpias in to BOLD and mine came back 5642 Cacotherapia flexilinealis. . Kyhl has questioned some placements in this area. You can see our discussion here .

Thanks Ann. I did base my ID
Thanks Ann. I did base my ID on the Rob Curtis photo on MPG. My specimen seems somewhat faded, so I'll hope for a photo of a fresh one on of these days.
