This subject came to a mercury vapor lamp set-up at 35°31'21.2"N 105°11'15.1W", 6415 ft elevation, Las Vegas 7.5' quadrangle in the Gallinas Nature Trail parking lot in the Las Vegas National Wildlife Refuge (set-up as fielded there). Many other images from this event are posted. I collected representative specimens of most, and can follow up with high resolution images of selected ones if needed. Size is determined by the sheet its on having 14 by 20 threads per cm.
