Adult Diphucrania acuducta are normally observed in early spring, so this one is way out of season. It may be a different species.

I agree Kimberi. The pattern on the elytra, while a little similar, seems to be quite distinct from D. acuducta.

Agree with Kim and Mark, definitely not acuducta. Cheers, Allen M. Sundholm
