We're not sure how to tell the Blackberry Looper
Chlorochlamys chloroleucaria from the Pistachio, Hethemia pistasciaria
Wagner says the Pistachio feeds on woody plants and shows the Blackberry on a Composite. We have both species imaged on Composites, so we don't know if that helps, or if we have them in the wrong place here??
