In Alberta, there are currently nine species of Dysstroma (Pohl et al. 2018). This Genus is one of the most challenging Gemetriidae groups and often leaves you guessing to confirm a specimen’s identity. The following key is an attempt to help those brave enough to venture into drilling down a specimens identity. I have done my best to provide a key to help users narrow down specimens / photos based on visible features. Despite my best attempts here, most species require a dissection to confirm their identity.
*This key is a DRAFT, a work in progress and will require improvements so please provide suggestions.
