The species is some Voriini, in my world (the old one) it would be Athrycia. Hope this helps. Theo |

Thanks Theo, and yes helpful. Narrows it down from the several hundred spp. that probably occur here. One ref. says just 1 widespread sp. in NA Athrycia cinerea |

I checked the key in the manual (I'm so not New World that I even forgot I had a fotocopy) and indeed it keys out to Athrycia cinerea. Only species in Athrycia in the Nearctic, so that is easy. theo |

For the latter, the more the merrier. |

I think this is Cyrtophleba nitida. The anepimeral bristle is not very long and the eyes are haired. |
