This photo of a female Zabulon Skipper represents the first confirmed record for Maine. We have been expecting this species to show up in Maine because Zabulon Skipper is pretty well established in coastal New Hamphire. I also saw three males but was unable to get photos of them.

bryanpfeifferDescription
Perhaps P. lamprosana or P. limitata. Or perhaps an Archips species. It was still alive after "the extraction" at my local emergency room at 2AM.
This specimen entered during nighttime observations at my lights. I could not for the life of me get it to fly out. (Hey, it happens.) So my gratitude goes to Dr. Kelvey Wilson and the staff at Central Vermont Medical Center in Berlin, Vermont.
(While this moth was in my ear, my speculation on its identity was Microcrambus elegans.)
