Update (21 August 2015): This specimen may be an example of either the S. chionanthi (10067) or S. forbesi (10067.1).


I found a second specimen of a lovely gray and black noctuid moth that I thought might be an example of Brachlomia discinigra (?). The first specimen, which I posted on this form a couple of weeks ago, showed the dorsal view. This image (shown above) is a left lateral close-up of a second, different specimen. I've examined the plethora of BG images for a definitive visual match (within the Noctuidae), but have come away again and again unsuccessful. I'm posting this photo with the hope that someone might recognize this striking but evidently seldom-seen moth. Thank you for any and all help! ;-)
