Texas Gray Moth (Glenoides texanaria)

I'm not confident of the ID. When I first spotted this moth, I thought it was a pug moth. But, it had brownish coloring that is similar to the Texas Gray. It was about 20 mm wide.

    The angle makes it a little hard to see the details clearly but they can be seen and I think after looking at the photos at BG that this is Glenoides texanaria. Posted 6 years ago
