Moths I.D. help

[Richard Worth]

Hi Rob,
Here's what I could get.

#009 & #016  look like genus Zale (don't look like lunata; other 
possibility is minerea)
#017 looks like Emmelina monodactyla which can also have tan colored forwings
#012 I don't think is Triphosa haesitata; too many inconsistancies 
but might be the same genus
#015 pretty sure is Orthosia hibisci
#014  Neoalcis sp. ??
#ses  Albuna pyramidalis (Walker)

Not 100% on any of them but 98% on all but 012 and 014, darn Geos ;-)

Get yourself a copy of this book, too.  It's free, I believe:
Macromoths of NW Forests and woodlands by Miller and Hammond. # 
FHTET-98-18.   Contact Richard Reardon in Morgantown, WV: 
ph#304-285-1566;  e-mail: rreardon at fs.fed.us
or
from Corvallis, OR:  #541-737-7612;  cfer at fsl.orst.edu

Best,  Richard
