Hi Larry,

The Feralia appears to be comstocki b/c I think the black quadrate patch
between the spots is a field mark for this species.
The Probole can be called either one b/c nobody really knows what the heck
the difference is between the two names. I am in the camp that they are
synonyms.
I agree with you Tinea determination.

Hugh
