Hodges #2727 - Paralobesia cyclopiana? - Paralobesia cyclopiana
Tallahassee, Leon County, Florida, USA
March 16, 2013
Size: 8mm
At outdoor light. Going out on a limb - could this be Phaneta ochroterminana? Yes, I realize that it is not listed from this far south, and the thorax of my moth does not look right. So, what is it?
Edit: Further research revealed to me that #2727 Paralobesia cyclopiana is a far better match, and it has been documented for Florida here. Can someone confirm this ID?
