New for Bugguide? Epinotia purpuriciliana, 1:32pm - Epinotia medioplagata

New for Bugguide? Epinotia purpuriciliana, 1:32pm - Epinotia medioplagata
Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
July 11, 2008
Size: Very small
I.D. by Bob Patterson.

Moved
Moved from Epinotia purpuriciliana.

This is a slightly aberrant E. medioplagata (common in Alberta). Epinotia purpuriciliana is a California species known from relatively few specimens. Still a new species for the guide, good work!

E. purpuriciliana
Moved from Epinotia to new species page.

Could very well be
...but there's currently no Internet photos of Epinotia purpuriciliana for comparison, and the only records are from California (type specimen location and 4 specimen records), so I'd need ID confirmation before creating a species page.

 
There's a pinned one here
