Maple Looper Moth
Parallelia bistriaris

Observation date: June 29, 2019
Submitted by: dawittrock2231
Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: Near a floodlight on my deck. Easier ones today, I think. After further review I think 1283764 is likely Macaria fissinotata. I had forgotten about the various possibilities for 1283829, it has been a while since I looked at that one. Interestingly, none of the three possibilities have been confirmed in Wisconsin on BG, ferrolineana seems most common. But after looking at it again, I like it for coruscana. I have submittd it, but I doubt I will get a confirmation on that one. Thanks again for your input!
