Coffee-loving Pyrausta Moth (Pyrausta tyralis). Family Crambidae, order Lepidoptera.

I saw a TON of new species this year, and I'm finally going through and editing a bunch of photos, so prepare to see more moths and other insects!

Hello, yes, this is one of the Grass Veneers, moths in the subfamily Crambinae of the family Crambidae (the Grass Moths).

I'm not confident that this individual can be identified to species from a photo, though it greatly resembles moths in the genus Pediasia.

I found a neat looking moth in the chicken coop while I was gathering up eggs :-)

Moth ID - OK, USA:

Hello, yess, this is a Celery Leaftier Moth (Udea rubigalis), family Crambidae.

Any idea about what this tiny critter who landed on my arm could be? Sadly I wasn't able to get any pics with something for scale, but those are dog hairs next to the bug, if that helps at all.

Could it be some kind of planthopper, maybe? I find their long "nose" particularly interesting
