"Greenhouse Leaftier"
Udea rubigalis
These two shots are of the same moth but one was taken with a flash and one without.
These are awful photos but they do show enough markings to ID to species. Thanks
to Bugguide.net for that. These little moths are a nemesis to gardeners since
the moth larvae prefer to eat the same foods as humans--beans, celery,
spinach, etc. This one was on Antelope Island flitting around
through the grasses. © Carol Davis, 5-31-2009
