Acleris Moth - Acleris pulverosana
In Westwood by outdoor night light; elevation 5100ft, Lassen County, California, USA
April 2, 2013
Size: Forewing length 9mm
Possibly a variant of Acleris hastiana based on a specimen photo at MPG;
But, since there is so much variation within some of these Acleris species, I will first wait for an expert's confirmation.

ID to...
''' Acleris hastiana based on images at MPG, and those provided by Glenn's links!

Moved from Acleris.

Acleris hastiana
I'll be submitting one like this today and I'm thinking this is Acleris hastiana. There are a number of images online that match this variation, like this one and this one. I think the person making each of these IDs (Ben Sale) is knowledgeable.

 
Thank you Glenn!
I have moved this specimen to the Acleris hastiana species pages; I think it would be ok for you to move yours there also.
