Brymblia quadrimaculella? - Brymblia quadrimaculella

Brymblia quadrimaculella? - Brymblia quadrimaculella
Paisley Airbnb, Paisley, Lake County, Oregon, USA
June 6, 2017
Size: ~9mm long
Came to moth sheet at night. ID suggested by Dave Trochlell

Sorry, we thought that Kyhl
wanted them posted to family.

 
Hadn't heard
I presume that means he doubts the ID, then. I thought they looked right for the species, but maybe he has other ideas.

 
Sorry, I meant that if one knows the family
but are not certain of the species, post to Family and not to ID Request nor to generic Moths, but we could have that wrong. We don't think Kyhl looked at this one so he wouldn't have doubted the ID.

 
Oh okay
Generally I would recommend that as well. However, there were fewer than a dozen images at family level before I moved several out just now. I'd put gelechiids, scythridids, and blastobasids at family (or subfamily, in the last case), but all other gelechioids at superfamily. Those are the three taxa I check, at least. The others are fairly empty.

Moved, Brymblia quadrimaculella
Moved from Concealer Moths. They look good to me. By the way, I don't think anyone ever checks for images at Oecophoidae; I think this is the first time I ever have.
