Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: 2nd observation of moths in Potentilla flowers. This one looks different from 1373153 in that the white banding seems to have a center that is a slightly different color and a small white spot anterior to the central white marking that is not present in 1373153. This might be simply intraspecies variation, or wearing.

Coordinator notes: Great find - to my knowledge, these may be the first of the species found in North America. I cannot find another moth quite as similar in the known North American fauna.
