Observation date: June 25, 2014
Submitted by: ozcomomoths
Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: None.
Status: Unknown
Verified by: Phillip E. Koenig
Verified date: September 04, 2014
Coordinator notes: Either Acrolepiopsis incertella or A. heppneri. I am leaning toward A. incertella because of the larger white patch which might not be diagnostic. There are no specimens of either species from Missouri but they are found in Illinois.
