Cross-Post: A Newly-Identified Texas Endemic Pyralid
On the Moths of the Greater Austin project journal, I just uploaded a detailed account of our (@jcochran706 and me) recent recognition of a Texas endemic Phycitine moth, the "Cute Plateau Pyralid", which flies for only a brief time in the Spring. That post has some identification notes and will soon have some supporting images. In the meantime, here are links to the iNat species pages for the Cute Plateau Pyralid, it's MPG page, and it's most similar relative, the Dusky Raisin Moth, and it's MPG page.

I'm uploading a large handful of images of this uncommon Texas endemic that I took over the course of a couple of hours. They were probably on every moth sheet and there may be some duplicate individuals among this set.
