It looks like you have a good ID suggestion for your moth! I agree completely. Please confirm and update your lovely spotting.

Sorry Aaron. You must have submitted your suggestion while I was in the process. At least we agree.

Don't worry about the category. You have it placed in Arthropods, which is correct. :-)
