Genus Renia

Genus Renia

Description:

Have been unable to identify this moth. It blends in perfectly with the ground. I saw it fly in and land in front of me, otherwise I would not have seen it. It seems to be in the genus Renia series but cannot identify it any further.

Habitat:

On a wooded path in the woods in Lewisburg, West Virginia.

I have looked through several Genus Renia and this spotting seems to be in this series. However, cannot locate the specific under genus renia. thanks so much for the help and I will put it under Genus renia.
