Please try to post square photos to enable their use also at MPG. In this case we are going to have to include a copy of this photo in a search program to try to get it identified. You might try to adopt a standard size for all your moth photos, say 500x500 or 560x560 pixels. Thanks.

In looking at MPG photos, what do you think about

Re: In looking at MPG photos, wha
That species does look very similar. The main difference I can see is the length of the fringes on the wings.

 
Thanks!
Do the images have to be perfectly square or can I just eyeball it? I'm going to upload another copy of this photo for MPG.

 
Eyeballing Almost Always Works :-)
