Zophodia grossulariella

Observation date: May 10, 2024
Submitted by: Bob Jacobson
Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: Suggested by iNat. Seems to be a good match to photos of that species, but I'm not aware of the host plants - gooseberries and currants - in the vicinity.
Status: Resident
Verified by: Ilona L.
Verified date: May 11, 2024
Coordinator notes: Gooseberries grow around here like weeds in the wooded areas. Just look for Missouri Gooseberry - Ribes missouriense on iNaturalist.
