Genus Olethreutes - Olethreutes

Genus Olethreutes - Olethreutes
1/2 mile north of Westwood flying about within a small wet meadow surrounded by woods., Lassen County, California, USA
June 7, 2010
Size: 11mm in height as posed
This pretty little moth is similar to several of the silver-spotted 'Olethreutes' moths on the Guide and at "MPG" - but not sure on a close match. I caught three of them in the daytime within the soggy wet meadow. All three were very similar in appearance.
