Frilly Grass-tubeworm Moth

Acrolophus mycetophagus

Description:

This moth looks a bit like bird poop at first. As you can see in the last photo, it is quite small and easy to mistake for droppings.

Habitat:

I usually find these on the citrus trees in my yard, but when I got too close it flew to some strawberry plants. Shady, suburban yard
