Lithophane hemina/lanei/petulca – light form

These are all Lithophane – identified by Kyle Johnson.  These are his comments:

“The first two L. lanei images were quite tricky; the wing angle can be misleading regarding the subreniform dark rectangle.  If you compare your best L. lanei image (10-6-15-3) with this hemina (10-4-15-1) you can see a jagged “tooth” project downward by over half the length of the rectangle in hemina; hemina also has a noticeably more “streaky” wing texture.  Much easier to separate these when comparing specimens but I feel “moderately confident” separating your images.  Given the habitats on your property I would expect both species.”
