NMW2017 Moth #19 - Pigritia
Lincoln, Lancaster County, Nebraska, USA

Size: 6 mm
Found at light in early morning. Looks like it's maybe another Pigritia sp., but a touch different looking than others I have submitted so thought it may be interesting?

Moved: Thanks
Moved from Butterflies and Moths.

Went ahead and moved it to the genus. I know these aren't able to be identified at this time, but I put them in hoping that there will be more research on them in the future. They are so cool-looking!

Agreed
I seem to get a few species of Pigritia at my house.
