Hi Folks
The 3rd micro moth
http://birdingnewbrunswick.ca/group/moths-of-new-brunswick/forum/topics/3rd-micro-moth-for-id

was identified by Bob Patterson as "looks like 3741 Platynota 
semiustana", it is a rather dark moth.

Here is another Platynota sp. for comparison (moth + genitalia), more 
white scales on head and thorax; seems to me to be P.  exasperanta. 
Opinions appreciated.
