Lobocleta: Probably 7094 - Lobocleta ossularia
This moth is in pristine condition. The terminal markings are strikingly different than what we see in typical specimens that show some degree of wear. I have seen that pattern of marking only in a couple of more western Lobocletas but, in those cases the hindwing markings are quite different (this moth couldn't be either of those). So, all that is left, so far as I can determine, is a beautifully fresh L. ossularia.
