A worldwide community photographing and learning about wildlife
Psyra conferta
Triangular; rather like a fighter jet in shape. Goldeny-brown with triangular black marks that look as if holes have been punched in its wings. The lower edge of the wings have a row of tiny black dots.
Drawn to the porch light of the cottage at Village Kolakham; a remote, forested area. Altitude 1868m in the Kalimpong Hills of Darjeeling District, on the fringes of Neora Valley National Park.
The moths disappear when day breaks and hide inside flowers, bushes and on the trees nearby.
