Xanthorhoe spadicearia
The forewing is strongly marked with lines, much mixed with ferruginous-ochreous in the distal area or at least in the vicinity of the geminate dark spots, the median band differently shaped, often of a brighter or lighter red (less purplish), never black, the hindwing darker distally than proximally the under surface strongly mixed with ochreous. - excerpt from Wikipedia
Happy National Moth Week! My first time spotting this moth and thank you so much Mr. Mark Ridgway for the ID.
