Description
As was yesterdays posting, this is a new critter capture for me. I had never seen one of these before. They are very very small for a moth.
The larva of some Plume Moths are considered to be pests because they feed on plants such as Lantana or Snapdragons.
Thanks to those who take the time to comment.
