The body shape makes me think it is a melanistic grass veneer of some sort? Crambini Tribe. Hmmm Posted 4 years ago

  Yes! It does look like that. I posted it on iNat and will share on BG as well. I'm not sure what to make of it. Posted 4 years ago

The app suggests Dichomeris ligulella, photos of it show a very high variability, so far from sure. Posted 4 years ago

  Thanks for checking! I got a suggestion on iNat for Neodactria sp. Perhaps, as Lisa mentioned above, it's melanistic? Posted 4 years ago
