Dysstroma or Digrammia Sp.? - Zenophleps obscurata
Caprock Canyons State Park , Briscoe County, Texas, USA
May 22, 2009
Size: Approx. 2.5 cm
Found this moth in the morning on a lighted building. One thought was Dysstroma mancipata, or one of the Digrammia sp. Any expert advice on ID much appreciated.

Not an expert
But this moth is kind of cool, so I looked for it a bit. The closest I could come was something around Zenophleps obscurata (7409) but range and habitat information seems difficult to come by.
