At U.V. light. Back then, we had permission to collect in the National Monument - almost impossible now. It might be a different species from https://bugguide.net/node/view/1955247 ?

I think it is another Euphoria ?

I think it is a different species though, but it is so dirty I can't figure it out...needs cleaning.

Cleaner

All images have now been replaced after cleaning in a warm soapy bath - after an overnight stay in the relaxing chamber.

Looking better.

And it turned out it is a different species..

Cleaning

I'll clean it up tomorrow and repost - especially thinking it might be a different species.
