Dicogaster coronada
Thank you Mr. Roberts. I believe your right in your identification of this moth. You know, it was a picture on Bruce Walsh's web site of a collecting sheet that got me to drive from N. California to Arizona. I hope to make the trip again next September.

Thanks again for the help.
Richard
