Harry,
I agree your bug is in the subfamily Eucosmini; the closest match I see on
MPG is #2946, Phaneta apacheana. However, the name suggests it is a western
species and the closest record to here is from OK.
I got a report from Parker Backstrom that he too is seeing
Rhyacionia--they're all over the place! Like you, he thinks his bug most
resembles R. duplana. Here we go again!
