Yes, merci Daniele! I was not able to get closer, if you look at the nubers of candidate, you know why... http://bugguide.net/node/view/44071/bgpage

Hi Rieko! What bayucca is doing here is giving you the family (Crambidae), sub-family (Pyraustinae) and tribe (Spilomelini) this moth belongs to. So all the names apply. This means he was unable at the time to determine the exact genus and species for the moth. Here you will find a list of all the genera that are found in the tribe Spilomelini: http://species.wikimedia.org/wiki/Spilomelini

Ah, bayucca, I check the names you gave me, but I am not sure which one is the right on...Maybe my pictures are not clear enough....:-(
