Spirama retorta
It had two 'eyes' on the wings, possibly to scare predators. About 5cm wingspan.

It actual ID is Asian Owlet Moth... as it is find in most of Asian countries.
Dandoucette, books here are incredibly expensive & reference books are very hard to find because importers don't see the market for them.
Thank you for the suggested ID, NuwanChathuranga!
I'm not sure, I just google it and see if I find any matches. Books can still be a huge help. That's too bad you can't find anything comprehensive, I would have thought KL would have some good books.
How do I check? I've been buying butterfly books but nowhere sells anything comprehensive. I'm hoping Project Noah can replace my book-buying.....
Nice spot and it's in immaculate condition. I think this is some type of Erebus moth but I'm not sure of the species.
