Stigmella nigriverticella

Stigmella nigriverticella
Stump Pond, Nantucket County, Massachusetts, USA
August 13, 2017
Erik van Nieukerken just got the DNA barcoding result for this specimen, and it is Stigmella nigriverticella rather than S. macrocarpae, which is what we've been calling most moths that look like this. He thinks that the fascia of true S. macrocarpae is wider.
