Coordinator notes: I reviewed the Datana species pages on MPG, bugguide.net, and also Peterson's Field Guide to Moths (Beadle and Leckie, 2012) and believe datana angusii is the correct id for the following reasons:
1) presence of orbicular spot
2) coppery-brown coloration
3) curved nearly parallel black lines on the forewings
4) scalloped outer wing edges
5) some "veining" in the forewing
