A Hubner's Pero Moth in Baltimore Co., Maryland (7/31/2014). Determined by Jason D. Roberts/BugGuide, who notes 'I have to add the small caveat that in just the last 1-2 years, identifying Pero specimens to species from photos has become quite murky, and without a physical examination or DNA, many, many IDs almost need an obligatory asterisk. That said, based on the appearance here and general criteria for visual distinction, it fits with ancetaria.'
