Hmm, at first sight it really looks like a nice match as well... At second thought: note the darker area below the apex of the forewing, this is missing in Vellivolata. Beside there is in Vellivolata a small empty elypsoid spotbon the hindwing, whereas yours only have a small black stripe. The fine line 90 degrees from the upper margin is slightly more scallopped in Vellivolata than in yours. Here the line is more like a thin colliers with very tiny pearls...
Indeed a very close match, but I am not sure. An execellent example for Ennominae being a real nightmare to ID. Let's see what others mean...
I was just spellbound by the gorgeous pattern of this butterfly's wings !
Found in Red Rocks Park west of Denver.
Endemic to the Philippines
Mapping Nature on Your Smartphone
For the developers at New York start-up Networked Organisms, smartphones are the butterfly nets of the 21st Century. Their tool, Project Noah, lets people upload photos of plants and wildlife around them, creating a map of the natural world and contributing to scientific research in the process.
What kind of beetle? This app knows
Bespectacled scientists of yore would carry around hefty field guides, made up of hundreds of pages of text and photos. But these days, smartphone owners have a lighter option: an app called Project Noah, which aims to help people identify plants and animals as well as collect data from "citizen scientists" about where certain species are located.
Designing ecosystems for talent development
Project Noah enables us to be part of a more focused online community where we can learn more about wildlife around us and contribute to scientific research. It pulls participants into deeper, more meaningful engagement by enabling people to go on “missions” to collectively map changes based on sightings.
A smart way to save wildlife
A modern invention that may also hold the key to saving species in the future. Project Noah is a global study that encourages nature lovers to document the wildlife they encounter, using a purpose built phone app and web community. In addition to the virtual "collection" of species, Project Noah encourages citizen science by linking up with existing surveys including the International Spider Survey and the Global Coral Reef Monitoring Network.
Dial-a-Class
New mobile applications include a tool called NOAH that lets you take cellphone pictures of bugs and trees and then sends back an identification of the exact type in as little as 24 hours.
