Moved to Psilocorsis quercicella
Moved from Dotted Leaftier.

Not completely sure but the two dark rows in the fringe and the dark line running up the antennae I think make P. quercicella more likely. See descriptions of both here.

Thanks...
for your expert opinion. I value it greatly! (And, of course, wouldn't dream of definitive ID in a complicated situation with marginal photo). Still, Thanks very much!
