Moved from Bronzed Cutworm.

I'm not sure when this specimen record was updated. (maybe 2013) Congrats!

Thank you Bob...
... for the new species page for this moth. BOLD Systems apparently did update this specimen, as well as the specimen linked below of which I suspected to be N. demaculata, even though BOLD originally placed both specimens as N. minians.
