On dogbane, again. adult.9/23/13 - Saucrobotys futilalis

On dogbane, again. adult.9/23/13 - Saucrobotys futilalis
Pennypack Ecological Restoration Trust, Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, USA
September 23, 2013
Size: bl: 10 mm
Several moths emerged in the last few days. I took this picture on 9/23/13
I found the same ones last year (August 2012) at a different location. This year, I raised them. I found a number of small cocoons of parasitic wasps. I raised these too.

Some were infested with Microgastrinae wasps.
