  1. Definitely looks the same, or at least VERY similar.

    1. Thanks, that should at the very least settle the genus. I found this image with 3 species of the genus in a row:

      Hard to tell them apart, since they are showing the front, not the back. It seems a poorly described genus, seeing some research papers from 2014 describing a few, and not much else.

      1. Agreed. Hilarious how we are repeating conversations with moths without realizing it... Posted 6 years ago
