Moth - Chionodes
Copyright © 2019 Sym P. le

Moth - Chionodes
Chilliwack Lake, British Columbia, Canada
July 7, 2019
Gelechiidae?
Compare Chionodes sabinianae - There is a pine forest at the foot (North end) of Chilliwack Lake. I was two to three kilometers south just above the lake in Douglas Fir/Cedar/Devils club forest.
Compare Chionodes emptor - but nowhere close to Florida or Texas

It crawled up out of the mossy forest floor.

Yes, probably Chionodes
A difficult group, however.
