Spotting

Description:

Small Brown moth that looks like a dead, dried up old leaf. The face is very dark, in fact it makes the moth look like it was hollow inside. Small brown stripes on its wings.

Notes:

Found perched on the end of a truck in the middle of the day when it was very hot.

These moths are best distinguished as caterpillars. I'll let you know if I can find a key to the species.
