Should be able to get a species ID on this arrow poison gelechiid with some help from Sangmi Lee soon.
Not as prevalent as other times I have searched for them and I only saw them on plants that were fruiting. This one dropped off and suspended itself in the air on a strand of silk before crawling back up to hide against the twig.
