Instar - Euscirrhopterus gloveri - 9307 - Euscirrhopterus gloveri

Thought I'd mention

that the plant it is feeding on is Talinum whitei in the Portulacaceae.

David, How are you on the southwestern Cucullia?

We could use some serious help on them and their look-alikes here

Very little experience

trying to sort them out. Not sure if I can help or not, but I can try. No promises :0)

My experience with Euscirrhopterus and some others comes from growing the plants they like to eat (which really annoys me, even though the moths are way cool too).

Looks to us like one of the Euscirrhopterus

in the guide here. Nice find!
Click on instar image at Arizona here and see what you think.

Thanks, it looks just like Euscirrhopterus gloveri. What is red on one Bugguide image is more orange on mine; other than that they look the same.
Thanks again
