Curled up moth - Lineodes integra
Montana de Oro State Park, Coon Creek Trail, San Luis Obispo County, California, USA
May 19, 2014
This amazing moth was next to the trail; love the way it bends its abdomen over its back and touches its head. It and another landed about 8 inches from the ground on plant stalks and just stayed there while we took as many photos as we wanted. Never seen one like this. Can anyone help with ID? Thanks in advance for any help.
