Species Loxomorpha flavidissimalis - Hodges#5155

forewing bright yellow with faint grayish AM and PM lines; discal spot a grayish patch, semi-hollow; PM line jogs abruptly near middle, forming a deep U-shaped sinus, then curves distally again before reaching inner margin; AM line irregular, not straight; no subterminal line

hindwing similarly colored except slightly paler near base; PM line very faint, shaped the same as on forewing; no AM line, discal spot, or subterminal line

Quoting Chuck Sexton from comments on iNaturalist: "One tiny detail I look for on this species is the short brown streaks at the base of the forewings, adjacent to the eyes. These are probably scales on the tegulae rather than the wings, but they stand out from the rest of the bright golden yellow wing."

Sides parallel except for slightly raised splracular callosities faintly impressed median line. Two minute spots on cervical shield and spiracles black. Hairs long sparse most numerous on first six segments white in color arranged in subdorsal marginal and sub marginal series none on median line. (a)
