Day flying moth -

I'm seeing many moths in recent weeks, chiefly in the shadier areas where I'm looking for butterflies.

Crambidae: 5199.1 - Glyphodes onychinalis
Known since 2000 in California (Newport Beach), larvae on jasmine and oleander and probably other plants. Originally from Afro-Asian Region (India, Sri Lanka, Indonesia, Australia, New Zealand). Based on molecular data a new genus may be required for this species and its closest relatives. See article by M. Alma Solis, News of the Lepidopterists, Society, Autumn/Winter 2008, Vol. 50, No. 3,4, pp. 79-80, and photographic spread on page 95.

Still trying
I still visit this one to work on it occasionally, but I keep coming up dry. I didn't realize we had more. I'm going to see if I can get an opinion from an expert or two.

said Pyralidae, so we'll move all of these there. Hope that's ok.

Absolutely
That's definitely where they should go for now. I just noticed on this one ...
... that Bob stated that according to Brian Scholtens it's an unknown/undescribed species. No wonder I'm having a little trouble. I would love if someone could send me a specimen this coming summer.

Thanks, all, for your continued interest.
In the rare event I capture one, I'll send it to J.D.

Thanks Ron
I'd really appreciate that. No need to go out of your way, but if you manage to capture one (or two), the best method I've found to ... stop ... them, is to place them in a jar or something and stick them in the freezer. They stay very calm and just slowly freeze without damaging themselves. But just email through BG if you do happen to capture one. Thanks again.

No problem
I'll work on confirming/getting species ID for you when I have a little more time.

Appears to be Salvinia Stem Borer
Samea multipliucalis. Also known as Waterlettuce Stem Borer. Pyralids are difficult to distinguish. Leave the image posted so others can weigh in on this one.

Thanks for the ID, Jacques
We'll see if more comment. I'm very new to moths and have trouble knowing where to start.
