Yellow-headed Monopis Moth
This seems to be Monopis pavlovskii (Hodges 418.99). Nice!

See thumb

Yellow-headed Monopis Moth
Preston, I just found my own last night! Handsome moth, isn't it.

Excellent Image!
It has a snow covered mountaintop mural on its wing! I'm really enjoying finding and imaging these small moths.

Monopis pavlovskii
Ah... I hadn't seen that. Thank you. I've not found many resources for identifying the micros. I know Bob Patterson is working to photograph more collections and I hope they'll show up on MPG soon. Microleps.org also is a help.
