duplicate submission
So you submitted this moth twice, once with just the lateral view in November 2020 and again in 2022 with the lateral and dorsal view. I do not believe it is dentella as this moth really stands out against all the other images currently placed there and I do not believe the range for dentella reaches this far north in Utah. However, I will leave this up to Aaron to reconsider and make a final determination.

Usually I make an indication
Usually I make an indication in the metadata that I have submitted for ID and where, but sometimes when I do a batch, I miss something and forget. Also if there are were other moths between the shots, I may not notice till later that one may just be a different view of another. Sorry this may happens, when I go on a long trip and then have an overwhelming number of new subjects. Range does make the other seem more likely.
