Coordinator notes: To add your image to either the <i>D. funeralis</i> or <i>D. maculalis</i> page you must provide: 1. a dorsal photo that clearly shows the antennae or the spot on the hindwing so the moth can be sexed. 2. a ventral photo clearly showing the markings on the abdomen. The moth does not have to be killed or chilled to get a photo of the underside. A jar with flat sides works great for this purpose and also makes it easy to get accurate measurements. 3. an accurate measurement of the wingspan.
