Moth - NM - Loxocrambus
Santa Fe County, New Mexico, USA
July 19, 2024
Body length about 10 mm.
Hidden in grass litter at base of plants.
Beautifully camouflaged. I disturbed it while walking and saw where it landed after it flew up.
Crambid? Pyralid? I don't know how much ID can be done with this photo. The focus on the others is worse.
