970a Ceranemota cf. C. albertae - Lutestring Moth 6248 - Ceranemota

Size: wingspan ~35mm

JD: looks good but more information would help to be sure
Gary A: They (specimens 970 and 975) are both the same genus (Ceranemota - aka Lutestrings) and are fall fliers, and all are western only in distribution. They are quite variable and difficult to identify to species - and I cannot offer more that. I don't even know if yours (again #970 and #975) represent one or two species!

Locality: Coastal SW Washington State at the edge of Willapa Bay
