Carrot Moth

Thysanoplusia daubei

Description:

Like a cross between Silver Y and Mediterranean Brocade. The French name is Plusie de la carotte, hence I have nicknamed it a Carrot Moth as it has no English Common Name at present.

Habitat:

Balcony, attracted from surrounding countryside by night light. Limestone outcrop in foothills of Los Serranos mountains.
