Remarks
Valerie Bugh first identified this species at our place in Camp Wood. I sent specimens to Jason Dombroskie after his visit in the spring of 2016 and he has now identified a specimen from the same location as P. exclusoriana. None of them are the same individuals, but I have seen some specimens that I believe back up this identification. BOLD has no ID on this species and there are no prior live photographs that I can find. Ann Hendrickson
