Moved from Zale.

I went ahead and moved it since BOLD confirmed the ID via DNA sequence.

Zale curema?
Moved from Moths.
The DNA data collected by BOLD suggest that this is Zale curema (BOLD-3S5PORQY7). However, I have been advised that Zale curema would be expected in April and not June in this part of the country. Yet, the sequences of Z. confusa and Zale metatoides are close but are considered not close enough to make them are possible alternatives.
