Gretchena
Looks a little closer to Gretchena nymphana, # 3268.99, to me. What do you guys think?

I Think You Are Correct....
I've been aware of confusion of photos under 3259 living moths at MPG and haven't gotten around to asking Richard Brown to help sort them out. I think Jim Vargo's photo of 3268.99 arrived more recently, and it certainly makes clear what this photo is (and also lets me add a new species to my yard list!!).
