Moved
Moved from Geometrid Moths. 99.85% match at BOLD to Tetracis pallulata, & 99.25% match to Tetracis jubararia. According to Ferris & Schmidt, 2010:16 (1) Tetracis pallulata generally can be separated from the other group III ochreous species by the presence of pale shading distad and dark shading basad of the PM line.
