Canary moth - Ypsolopha canariella

Canary moth - Ypsolopha canariella
Summerland-Princeton Rd., ~ 2 km W of Summerland, Okanagan-Similkameen, British Columbia, Canada
July 23, 2008
I recently wrote a key to Ypsolopha of Alberta, Canada so i can confidently say this is Ypsolopha canariella. It is one of the more common ypsolophids attracted to light in both BC and AB. I coined the common name. I thought somebody ought to give these little guys common names too.
