Hemlock Angle
Macaria fissinotata

Observation date: September 06, 2015
Submitted by: digginflowers
Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: The moth was actively moving about at the porch light. Similarities to other angles make an ID difficult for us. Three twenty-five year old hemlocks are in our yard along with about ten smaller hemlocks and a fir but that does not constitute a forest. Several other evergreens are also present along with deciduous trees.
