Moved from Litter Moths.

Tentative ID based on similarity to other images at MPG and in the Guide. Pretty sure I got it right. The broken basal line and zig-zag pattern of the am. and pm. lines match well as do the dashed terminal lines and checkered fringes of both forewing and hindwing.

Excellent photo of a beautiful specimen. Perhaps one of the Herpetogramma moths?
