Glyphipterix circumscriptella

Nectaring on a flower of black-eyed-susan (Rudbeckia hirta) in an old field used as pasture near the edge of a forest. The second year in a row (almost to the day) this moth has been found at this spot. There are upland species of sedge (Carex communis and Carex peckii) growing in the adjacent forest. The larvae of other members of this moth family (Glyphipterigidae) are reported to feed on sedges and this one may also.
