Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: Near a floodlight on my deck. I think this must be either Eoparargyractis plevie or Petrophil canadensis. I am unsure on how wingspan is measured (it seems to be inconsistent). BG says canadensis has a wingspan of 11-18 mm, Peterson says plevia has a total length of 7-9 mm - is this the same thing? The paint spot on the picture is 9 mm long, so this one has a length of about 8 mm, so I'm suggesting plevia, but if canadensis' length is half the wingspan, geographically, canadensis probably makes more sense.
