Unknown moth needs ID from Franklin-Parker Preserve (Crambid?) - Nymphuliella daeckealis
Chatsworth, Ocean County, New Jersey, USA
August 23, 2013
Size: About 8 to 10 mm.
Came to our blacklight light set-up in the field during a group moth night, at Franklin-Parker preserve here in the Jersey pines, it flew to the sheet early around 11:00 PM. A NOTE ON THIS PICTURE...the little guy was black and I had to really turn up the flash to capture the small white markings.

4753 - Nymphuliella daeckealis
Variable in white markings, fringe is distinctive. This photo is of the freshest specimen I have seen. I recropped the photo to "standard" 560x560-pixel size and sharpened it.
