antennas where black. When zooming in, you could see a featherlike pattern, which is very often seen with moths.

Hmm, kinda hard to say, yours is not close enough. Seems the indian one has the yellow in front, while this one has it at the back. Wingpattern looks same, but the wingshape looks somewhat different.

Unfortunately not. But my friend has, since he also shot it. I could ask for it.

Not really small. Flew to our gasoline lamp around 10pm. Has the size of a pack of cigarettes with spread wings.

Might be a darter as eyes look alike. If it is small size butterfly.
