Lawana imitata, Flatidae
Do not confuse the common name with the species. It is not a moth at all, but rather the nymphal form of a Flatid plant hopper.
Nice spotting! Please consider adding it to The Hoppers mission: http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/8096...
Took your advice. Thanks! :)
That is very interesting, Andrew, I didn't know it. You could put that piece of info in the notes section, it would make clear the name is not wrong. Thank you.
I know asergio, but that is the common name for the species.
Andrew, flatidaes are leafhoppers, not moths.
