Here are some cool moths from Monday night. I decided that would be my big Moth Week night so I spent a lot of time at the sheets. I posted these in the FB mothing group but I know some of you don't use FB so I'm posting them here too. There didn't seem to be very many moths on the sheets but somehow I ended up with 106 species. Tripudia flavofasciata - I couldn't believe this beautiful "micro" was a Noctuid. I searched though all the micro families and didn't find it but while looking for something else, I stumbled across it on MPG. Dasychira atrivenosa - relatively plain but not a common moth. Datana sp. - this one is missing most of the bands you'd expect to see on a red-headed Datana. It could be a new species but it's probably just a variation on a common one.
