Red-Striped Fireworm Moth - Hodges#2198 - Aroga trialbamaculella
Ottawa, Ottawa-Carleton, Ontario, Canada
June 5, 2014
Identified by Dr. J-F Landry, CNC, with the proviso that "it is a complex
of at least three species (the other two are epigaeella and argutiola),
really separable only by genitalia. I said trialbamaculella because based
on collecting dates that seem the most probable."
