I had another good night last night after a few slow ones.  So many moths, so 
little time! Is everyone else getting gobs of Alanthus Webworm moths? It is a 
wonder those trees have not been eaten up considering how many caterpillars 
there have to be! I'm also seeing a LOT of Elegant Grass-veneer moths. I always 
laugh when I see them, they look like they have a frown! 



Here are 7 that I ID'd, I still have a couple more to work on: 



#0263 Nemapogon clematella 7-30-10 



Double-humped Pococera Moth #5608 Pococera expandens 7-30-10 



Freeman's Palpita Moth #5225 Palpita freemanalis 7-30-10 (~99% sure on this 
one!) 



Gold-stripe Grass-veneer Moth #5419 Microcrambus biguttellus 7-30-10 



Gray-edged Bomolocha #8447 Hypena madefactalis 7-30-10 



Leaf Blotch Miner Moth #0595 Caloptilia bimaculatella 7-30-10 



White Spring Moth #6667 Lomographa vestaliata 7-30-10 





  

That Leaf Blotch Miner Moth is an odd little critter! I almost overlooked it!
