Submitted by: Stuart Marcus
Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: Trinity River Refuge HQ building under white light.
Status: Resident
Verified by: stomlins701

Coordinator notes: This was a difficult id. Based on photos on BAMONA and the Moth Photographers Group web sites, the photo could be of A. pinatubana or perhaps A. floridana. In reviewing all the markings, I decided in favor of the former, as the submitter had suggested. Both species could probably be found in the sighting locale.
