On the way back from the Indian Creek Ranch gathering, I did some blacklighting around the north entrance of San Angelo State Park -- dry, hot, and windy, but lots of bugs still came! :)

I have the best time ever gathering with fellow naturalists. :) These obs were from the second night of the Indian Ranch Creek BioBlitz: https://www.inaturalist.org/projects/indian-creek-ranch-biodiversity/journal/65626-2022-bioblitz-observation-summary
(still working on ID's -- just uploading stuff first)

Not even sure I have this in the right family. Can't believe I can't locate the ID given how distinctive it is!

Lang, H., Chapin, J.P., 1917. The American Museum Congo Expedition collection of bats. Part III. Field notes. Bull. Am. Mus. Nat. Hist. 37(18): 497-563.
"They may be considered typical of the region of equatorial rain-forests, as they seem to be absent from the bushveldt to the north of Niangara, although in the latter place they are still common. The large forest galleries along the Uele and its affluents evidently still furnish a suitable environment."

I was expecting this to be L. ludoviciana, but the plant has deeply pinnitifid upper leaves with narrow winged, non-clasping bases, which points to L. hirsuta--much less common. Plants of this species were often bitten off--deer browse I assume; I only found this one with an intact inflorescence.

My last hike on the morning of April 16 was out in the desert flats near the Dog Canyon trailhead (or overlook?).
This image is cropped from a larger view of a "bouquet" of desert flowers. There's also a bunch of Cryptantha (small white flowers) behind the flax and a couple of Nama flowers in the lower right.

Can't find anything like this one on MPG. The closest are Homoeosoma electella, Atascosa glareosella and Rumatha polingella, but none of them looks right.

A micro moth that I haven't seen before. It seems distinct enough that I might have a shot at identifying it.

@gcwarbler - do you have any ideas about this one? Not finding it in iNat or MPG.

A seriously wild looking moth. Never seen anything like this! Nature is amazing <3
At UV lights. Urban wooded neighborhood in Northeast Austin.
Seems to be the first record for this species in the Austin metro area.

these along the river here were extremely numerous-often a half dozen per flower, plant after plant (on Goldenrod and Juda's Bush). photographs may be of separate individuals-on Juda's Bush. FWIW-I have observed this moth as rare on the Current, fairly common at Deep Ford (Big Sugar) and extremely abundant at Cow Skin on the lower Elk. I have yet to see one anywhere on Mike's Creek.

Went to the parents' house to set up the moth light! It had rained just a little tiny bit before hand -- I think that caused lots of bugs to come out.
Will use the moth guide to try to narrow this one down:

Seemingly yet to be described species. Only other records of something similar are from the Southeast (Alabama, South Carolina)

This was the ID provided on BG, although I admit I'm still not really sold on it. Anyone able to confirm or refute this ID?
