Double-striped Pug (Gymnoscelis rufifasciata)

 

Gymnoscelis is a genus of moths in the Geometridae family.  These are small moths, typically with a wingspan of 10–25 mm. The wings are narrow, with angular outlines and cryptic patterns. The forewings often have mottled, wavy lines in shades of brown, gray, or green, providing camouflage. At rest the wings are held flat and outstretched, blending with bark or leaves.
