Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: Possibly E. columbiata? Is black second abdominal segment diagnostic?
Status: Resident

Coordinator notes: I'm not super confident on Eupithecia but the black second abdominal segment looks to be diagnostic comparing with the ones that have reached RG. Also the dates of sighting match - late April-May with some from Canada reaching into June.
