Just a thought
Robert, I was just wasting my time trying to find a good home for my Dichomeris of yesterday and saw Ken Childs' Dichomeris punctidiscella and then yours among the inversella-kimballi. They look quite similar, don't they. Ken is an expert (and knows many experts) in the moth business and presumably knows what he is doing. Take a look.
