Moved from Telamona vestita.

Moved 'conservatively' pending clarification of the taxonomy

Telamona carynotana
the shape is distinctive, and the brown wings are unusual

 
Thanks for the ID!
Has this recently been elevated to species? I did a quick search on bugguide and it looks like: is the same thing? It's listed as: Telamona vestita var. carynotana. I found a fair number of individuals while trying to get a cooperative guy, all were brown.
