Acrolophus plumifrontella - Male
Valdosta, Lowndes County, Georgia, USA
July 15, 2013
One of the cooler moths this past week. It was camped out on a window screen, just down and left from our patio light (Valdosta, Georgia). Any help pegging this down a tad would be great. Then I can use a cooler name than "That Lava Moth"...
