Paraplatyptilia Fragilis
''Paraplatyptilia fragilis'' is a moth of the family Pterophoridae. It was described by Lord Walsingham from the Klamath Lakes area in northern California, and has a wide range in the Great Basin, inland montane and desert ranges from eastern British Columbia to Utah, and from New Mexico to southern California and Baja California Norte in Mexico. The wingspan is 17–19 mm. Adults are on wing in April. ''Paraplatyptilia fragilis'' is very similar to '' Paraplatyptilia carduidactylus'', but averages much paler, particularly on the abdomen which is uniformly pale. In ''P. carduidactylus'' the abdomen is usually patterned or banded, and often has more spots on browner wings. Some specimens, particularly worn or pale examples of ''P. carduidactylus'', may require dissection for definite identification. The larvae feed on ''Penstemon cyananthus ''Penstemon'' , the beardtongues, is a large genus of roughly 250 species of flowering plants native mostly to the Nearct ...

''Paraplatyptilia petrodactylus'' is a moth of the family Pterophoridae that is found in North America (including Iowa). The wingspan is about . The head, thorax and abdomen are shaded cinereous. The legs are cinereous and slightly thickened at the joints. The forewings are white, shaded with cinereous or ashy brown and the costa is brownish beyond the middle. There is an oblique brownish fuscous line, starting from the costa before the apex and extending inward more obliquely than the outer margin, but not reaching the fissure. This line is widest on the costa, tapering to a point inwardly, and is darker at its lower end. The fringes are white within the fissure, with a cinereous line found near their bases, shaded with fuscous at the anal angle. The hindwing Insect wings are adult outgrowths of the insect exoskeleton that enable insects to fly. They are found on the second and third thoracic segments (the mesothorax and metathorax), and the two pairs are often referr ...

The cilia within the fissure and those along the dorsal margin before the anal angle are white, the latter containing a few dark scales. The hindwings are cinereous, although the cilia are slightly paler, especially along their bases. The posterior legs are cinereous and the feet slightly paler. References ...
