Hi Merrill,
Thanks for the id! David Beadle told me what it was on flickr a couple days ago
and I was waiting to send this out until I knew more ids.
And speaking of David Beadle, got my copy of the new field guide yesterday and
love it so far (though still have many, many plates to flip through). I did
notice that for a number of species I recognized, primarily micros, they had
different common names in the book than on MPG, and some had common names while
on MPG they don't have one period.
Happy mothing,
Kyle
