  Sighting 1256253

Observation date: June 26, 2020
Submitted by: tirvine2020
Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: Found near a light. I have found a specimen of what I believe is D. kimballi from last week when I was in New Jersey (and I have submitted it on here, sighting 1255370) and it seems to differ from this one that I just found here in MA by the lack of the supposedly diagnostic dark costal mark and the specimen from NJ seems to have much more circular markings around the center of the wing, whereas this one seems to just have straight bands across the wings.
