2702 - Epismus augmentana
I think this is a pretty safe ID. I can rule out all other species of Epismus for which we have specimen photos at MPG. However, Heppner credits to Florida a species 2701.2 - Epismus transferranus that I have never seen. It is unlikely to be a look-alike for 2702.

Please Post Square Photos
and a bit larger (if possible). It really would be a great help in my being able to do research to get IDs for you. Thanks, B.P.
