Glyphodes Moth

Thanks Philip. Done! So would you put the common name as Glyphodes Moth or Crambid Moth?

*sources, it is your call

I went ahead and changed my ID to G. rubrocinctalis. DanJanzen has decades of experienceand is pretty much the main source of knowledge when it comes to Costa Rican moths. Occasionally, I might find a mistake on what he posts to BOLD, but that is not unexpected considering how many specimens he has uploaded.

Thank you so much Philip... So I should change it to

If you don't mind me asking, Where are you stationed? Where are you seeing the same moths as me?

The first time I saw it was on Aug 9th. I haven't checked with my partner who was stationed here before me to see if he has seen it too.

thanks Phillip... That looks pretty similar. Did you also see it a week ago?

I had to ID this one a week ago, and it was not easy! I found one mention of it being Syngamia nr. inflammatalis. I was not able to find anything about S. inflammatalis, but I did find S. dilutalis on BOLD.
