Thanks Eddie! I'll compare the 2 photos. My poor guy looked like he'd had a 
pretty rough life! That torn wing didn't help. I'm still trying to get these 
families and their wing shapes figured out, it will make ID'ing the moths a lot 
easier!

Kris... I believe your Stenoporpia pulmonaria could be # 8692 maple zale look 
at moth photographers live moth section and look at Robert Pattersons moth. 
Yours to me appears to look very similar but also worn to that one. In my 
opinion. Eddie Huber

After being out of town for 2 nights my moths were a bit slow to come to the 
sheet last night. But I still managed to get some new ones! I left the light on 
all night and went out at 5:30 this morning and got a few more. I must be 
crazy, these insects are sure making me lose a lot of sleep! Ha! These new 
moths are on my Picasa page:

107. Agreeable Tiger Moth #8134 Spilosoma congrua 7-5-10 

108. Dotted Gray Moth #6449 Glena cribrataria 7-5-10 

109. Esther Moth #6655 Hypagyrtis esther 7-5-10 

110. Ironweed Root Moth #5228 Polygrammodes flavidalis 7-5-10 

111. Mottled Yellow Grass-veneer Moth #5379 Neodactria luteolella 7-5-10 

112. Small Baileya Moth #8973 Baileya australis 7-5-10 


I'm attaching a photo of one that I can't seem to figure out. I have checked on 
MPG and other sites, Stenoporpia pulmonaria is the best match I can come up 
with. If so, that will make my #113. If anyone can ID this one, I'd sure 
appreciate it. The poor Dotted Gray Moth was trapped in a spider web, but I 
guess my flash startled it so much it escaped! :)
