Size: Forewing Length 18 mm
Elevation 5,000. ft.
Oak-Juniper Woodland.

BOLD Results
Best ID with the full database is Tolype glenwoodii.
For some reason the Query ID is Tolype distincta.
Results here.
I think all three of my images here are Tolype glenwoodii.

Tolype distincta?
BOLD DNA Analysis ID CMAZA048-09.
Both T. distincta and T. glenwoodii matched 100%. For some reason BOLD decided it was T. distincta. Bruce Walsh does not list T. distincta. It looks like a match for the dark male T. glenwoodii pictured here. What do you think?

DNA Analysis
Specimen sent to BOLD Systems for DNA analysis and they could not come up with a match for ID.
