UI Moth 090110-1 - Protoboarmia porcelaria - Female
Amherst, Hampshire County, Massachusetts, USA
September 1, 2010
Size: @1"
ID help appreciated. Is there a resource somewhere that gives basic hints as to identification? I looked at the silhouette chart in the guide, but couldn't get much farther than Geometrid. My only moth guide is Covell's Peterson guide. Is there a better one? I know of a person named Seabrooke (I follow her blog) who is going to publish one next year.
Thanks.

Try using the fast browse plates at MPG if not the guide pages here. No book can cover more than a small fraction of the moths of a region. (no rsvp, thanks)
