4764 Watermilfoil Leafcutter - Parapoynx allionealis

4764 Watermilfoil Leafcutter - Parapoynx allionealis
Searsmont, Waldo County, Maine, USA

Quite like but none of the images of the species show this wing posture which I almost always see these in.

Moved
Moved from Moths.

Other possibility
How about #4765?

 
Range... ;-)
And the markings don't really match up, thanks for looking though!

 
Oh yes, the range.
Maine is not Florida! Anyway, Maury settled the issue!

 
Thanks Maury!
Haha.

 
Confused
Looking at my own photos and all the ones posted for #4764 and 4765 I cannot come up with a criterion that allows me deciding one way or the other. In the cases of dense markings it seems easy, but in others I can't - probably just because of my untrained eye and incompetence. Distribution does not help much here in Florida. Perhaps you, Fyn, or Maury, can help.
