  Sighting 1127236

Observation date: July 14, 2017
Submitted by: Ed Harrison
Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: Several of these appeared shortly after a rain and landed on house siding. All were very active flying from place to place and “running” along the siding sometimes laterally. These were similar in size (length ~9-10 mm) and behavior, but differently marked, to another moth that appeared at the same time. Both may be the same species but differ due to gender? I will post each moth separately.
