    Hmm. If it wasn't for the tiny size, I'd suggest a lichen moth (Lithosiini), but I don't know if they are that small. It resembles Holocraspedon sp. or Eugoa sp., but no exact matches... Posted 6 years ago

      Thank you and I feel so bad for these moths being so hard, all this effort and so often no result. Sorry! Posted 6 years ago

        It's good for us to be challenged, even if we can't find the IDs.

        Plus, maybe someone who can help will come along at some point.         Posted 6 years ago
