DSCF1583.JPG
RWWA-0312 BOLD DNA: Strong matches for E. perfusca with nearly all the highest 50 ranging from 98.8 to 100% . A solid placement on the E. perfusca branch with few (probably misidentified) other species including about 5 specimens from this site currently listed as Eupithecia sp. Probably E. perfusca = E. miserulata as both have similar DNA matches.
Locality: Coastal SW Washington State at the edge of Willapa Bay geo:lat=46 37.273 geo:lon=-123 56.814
wingspan ~27mm
