Coordinator notes: This could be either <i>Eulithis gracilineata</i> (Greater Grapevine Looper) or <i>Eulithis diversilineata</i> (Lesser Grapevine Looper) . Adults of these two species cannot be separated by appearance alone. However, the forewing measures do not overlap (Greater, 16-19 mm: Lesser 12-15 mm). Thus, photographs with a millimeter rule are crucial for identification.
