Neither Euxoa nor Sympistis, this is Copibryophila angelica

See what you think about MPG. Look at the Jim Troubridge spread. If I am right, it would be a nice addition for the guide.

I subscribed because I had looked for this one and could not come up with a good suggestion. S. occata, in my experience has a tufted head and a very fuzzy pronotum.

Note the jagged AM line on this one. I think only Ed could speak to the species ID for this one.

Sympistis?
Sympistis apis was suggested by Ed Knudson, which is quite credible; i might prefer S. occata but lack experience with these
