Lichenophanes bicornis, i'd say -- but for the indicated size
how was it measured?

Thanks
Sorry about that. I'll remove that so that it does not throw others who may see the image. This was one of about 50 shots I took when I was out doing my late night moth shooting, and I was estimating from memory. Having said that, it was smaller than some other reported sizes I'm seeing for that species. I'm sure it was under 1 cm.

no size data is better than size from memory
please keep in mind that estimates never help, but may well hurt your chances for a good ID
