This Phigalia denticulata was seen here on 2/17 and it has a gray/green tint to it. There's also a greenish one on MPG/BG by Denise Gaskill.although that one looks like an all around unusual specimen. http://mothphotographersgroup.msstate.edu/species.php?hodges=6659 ; I'm not saying that this coloration is common in denticulata but that it is important to use all the markings to make an ID and not call it strigataria just because it has a green tint. On another note, most denticulata I've seen this year have been on the dark side. I'll post pics of the 7 or so I bothered taking pics of if anyone is interested.
