I flushed this moth from some weeds while watering the garden. I could list all the plants present, but I think it would be useless.

Moved to Anania tertialis
Moved from Crowned Phlyctaenia.

ID based on location. This subspecies has been elevated to species. Your size may be incorrect. The forewing should be about 10 mm.
