Please add another common name than the number of Hodges.

Desmia is certainly correct, but I think it is not possible to get a safe ID from only a picture. There were already a lot of dissussions about Desmia. I think a valid compromise would be either Desmia sp. or Desmia funeralis/maculalis. http://bugguide.net/node/view/778235 http://bugguide.net/node/view/49556
