Field Notes

Description:

about 1 inch long, very pale green underwings and emerald upperwings. Body is also pale underneath.

Habitat:

Attracted to lights on a sheet at the edge of a blueberry field and garden in the Pacific Northwest temperate rainforest.

Notes:

From the small amount of upper wing that you can see, this looks very like a Geometrinae (Emerald). What do you think Fyn?
