This Moth had one of its legs "stuck" in a crease of a long narrow green leaf on the roadside; eventually it got loose and flew away, but lost the one leg in the process. Along Mormon-Emigrant Road, approximately midway between Leek Spring Ecological Area and Silver Fork Road (North to Kyburz and Highway 50). Elevation about 7,250 feet. Within area of 2021 Caldor Fire impact.

I extracted this 350-micron adult oribatid from oak-manzanita leaf litter using a Tullgren funnel. Some of the photos were taken at the California Academy of Sciences. Dave Walter was kind enough to provide the family ID and the likely genus ID from these same photos posted to the FB Acarology group.

ID per https://v3.boldsystems.org/index.php/Public_BarcodeCluster?clusteruri=BOLD:AAX1515, though some people seem to be ID'ing it as Ornarantia for reasons I don't understand.

I find that side-by-side comparison of moths shown at the same scale with a calibrated, neutral background can be immensely helpful for their identification. Still, I am reasonably certain about only a few of the 16 species shown here. I put parentheses around the names of some guesses. Any help with IDs is greatly appreciated.
Update: Thanks to the generous help by Joanne Russo @joannerusso, these specimens are getting identified!
All specimens collected in Northern California (Yolo, Lake, Napa, Placer, and Nevada counties) in 2021-2022. Leg. and phot. V. Heinrich.

Blue isn't a particularly common color in moths. Haven't made much progress with this micro, despite that though. Maybe 5 mm long.

I think this might be Grapholita thermopsidis as it was found on Thermopsis rhombifolia but I would appreciate confirmation or redirection

Popotoca de Zapalinamé (Phassus zapalinamensis)Autor
emily_villarrealDescripción
Esta polilla llegó y se paró en la puerta del patio de mi casa
Mide unos 7-8 centímetro de largo
Sólo usa cuatro de sus seis patas
Las cuatro patas que usa son negras, peludas y fuertes, y las otras dos son pequeñas, delgadas y claras
Cuando es molestada arquea el abdomen hacia atrás al tiempo que produce un sonido parecido al croar de una rana
La metí en un herpetario que ya tenía preparado de antemano para poder fotografiarla sin el riesgo de que fuera a huir o de que mi perro la fuera a matar

Had this moth not flown to this plant in front of me I never would have noticed him. I actually increased the contrast on him so you can eee him.

I had three of these in 2016, one in 2017 and this is the 3rd one in 2018. All are posted on iNat. All the previous individuals have been late May and June; this is my first July record.

Ron Votaw's image of this unnamed Inguromorpha was apparently taken in Comal County, Texas in 2008. See this BG upload:

BG also has images of apparently the same species in Kendall and Edwards counties.
