Moved to Zanclognatha
Moved from Moths.

I agree that this may be Zanclognatha protumnusalis but not confident enough to place there.

Interesting
Ted,
I think we can safely say my recent post looks identical to yours



As you see, I was thinking Z. inconspicualis, which is far from conclusive. I'll let you know what I find out and vice-versa. Later
Robert

Maybe...
Hey Robert, thanks for your comments, I thought that my image resembled Steve Nanz's moth which is still sitting at the genus level here at BugGuide alhough it has been placed in Zanclognatha protumnusalis page at MPG. I am hoping that an expert like Bob Patterson jumps in on this.
