This is one of the moths listed in GSMN Park, so it makes sense that it would
be in Washington Co.

Doug,
Thanks for your feedback. After a more careful look, I agree with Hahncappsia
sp., however I believe it is Hahncappsia mancalis - Hodges#4967 (Hahncappsia
mancalis). Given the similarities and variations, I welcome more thoughts on
the subject.

The attached photo (7-27-09) could be one of the Hahncappsia species, maybe
Hodges 4962 or 4968.

There's a lot of variation on the European Corn Borers on the BugGuide page
but there's a definite pattern and I don't see that pattern on the one in the
attached photo or on your 4949.

I sent this to BugGuide I.D. request. The closest I can come up with is a
female European Corn Borer - Hodges#4949 (Ostrinia nubilalis); Crambid Snout
Moths (Crambidae) » Pyraustinae » Pyraustini » Ostrinia ».
It came to my porch light in Johnson City, TN (Washington County) on
7-27-09.
This lead me to question my previous I.D. of 4949 in my Flickr moth photo
collection
