Thanks, Rich! It was probably the False Underwing because it was small. 



I got a couple of moths last night that I'm not sure about. I'm attaching 
photos in hopes that someone can help me ID them. The Pyralid was on the 
ceiling of the carport, so I was not able to get very close. There are several 
Dagger moths that look similar, I'm having a hard time with that one. 

I've attached the Azalea Leafminer because it is a new one for me. It is a very 
tiny moth, I almost missed it! 



Other moths I saw last night include: 



04652 – Tortricidia testacea – Early Button Slug Moth 4-20-11 





09212 – Acronicta grisea – Gray Dagger Moth 4-20-11 (maybe?) 





  

01011 – Antaeotricha schlaegeri – Schlaeger's Fruitworm Moth 4-20-11 





  

09678 – Elaphria versicolor – Variegated Midget Moth 4-20-11 





  

05226 – Palpita magniferalis – Splendid Palpita Moth 4-20-11

The Underwing if it is large more likely Locust Underwing if it was small more 
likley False Underwing. It is to early for the true (Catacola) Underwings.

"E" means east, "W" is west, and "B" is both.  I like having that on MPG, 
because I can ignore the W ones.  It isn't part of the Hodges number.

  I had an underwing tonight, but it was too hyper to even get a glimpse of it, 
much less a photo! There were several Spring moths and the usual flies, beetles 
(which were annoying the heck out of me by getting in my hair!!!), and the 
weird weevil. 



  I've been working on IDs and have come across a couple that I'm not sure 
about. I'd appreciate help with the attached photos. I think they may be: 

  3597 – Argyrotaenia velutinana – Red-banded Leafroller Moth 

  9037 – Hyperstrotia pervertens – Dotted Graylet Moth 



  Others I have seen this week include: 

  8134 – Spilosoma congrua – Agreeable Tiger Moth 4-20-11 

  07855 - Hemaris diffinis Snowberry Clearwing 4-19-11 

  0592 – Caloptilia azaleella – Azalea Leafminer Moth 4-20-11 

  5159 – Desmia funeralis – Grape Leaffolder Moth 4-19-11 

  05226 - Palpita magniferalis Splendid Palpita 4-20-11 

  6588 E – Iridopsis larvaria – Bent-line Gray Moth 4-19-11 



  Why do some of the Hodges numbers have the "E" designation? Is that necessary 
for us to add?
