A worn Faint-spotted Palthis Moth in Worcester Co., Maryland (7/16/2013). Notes from Mike Burchett: "P. asopialis usually has a dark patch on the outer margin of the FW near the apex. This one does not due to wear. Otherwise this specimen was ID'd mainly from the shape of the dark median band. It is not strongly curved as it would be in P. angulalis."
