Specimen type: Photograph

Coordinator notes: Probably resident; it's found in SW Texas and in AZ. I'm basing this ID on Powell & Opler, and on the MPG page; there's some variability and I think I can see a somewhat pointed HW in this photo. This was a very puzzling moth to ID; I hope another coordinator will correct me if I have this wrong.
