Hodges #5240 - Agathodes monstralis - Agathodes monstralis
Tallahassee, Leon County, Florida, USA
June 2, 2021
Size: Forewing ≈16mm
Found resting under outdoor globe lamp late in the evening. The posted photo was taken next day in daylight after the moth had been kept in our refrigerator overnight. Initially I thought the moth to be a Lineodes, but consulting MPG I discovered a good match with photos of Agathodes monstralis. This is the easternmost BugGuide record.
