Crambid? - Ancylosis albipenella

Crambid? - Ancylosis albipenella
Eastern Sierra, Inyo County, California, USA
July 20, 2021
~4150' elevation, Bishop.

Accidental discovery! Tube was connected to a branch of Wild Licorice (Glycyrrhiza lepidota), which I discovered when going thru cut food plant for a Melissa Blue caterpillar I was rearing.

3 days later a frisky caterpillar emerged with a tinge of pink, possibly looking for a place to pupate, then it disappeared. Approximately 2 weeks later this moth appeared. I never saw where it pupated, possibly back inside the tube.
