Cleora sp.
To me, it actually looks like a composition of both moths on the reference page.
Cleora injectaria looks good to me. What do you think?
Interference is all good if intelligent and productive DrN !
Mark, pl recheck. They're entirely different. Besides others, check the frills. Cleora's "punched in" regular frills, whereas, Chrysolarentia's hairy, straight frills. Sorry for the interference!
Haha! What would we do without you? Thanks for the all the ID's AND the laugh Mark. Never a dull moment with you here :)
Ennominae! (boy what a dag :-( )
The doc is right - Cleora injectaria - and no wonder as it's found all over south asia and into the pacific http://lepidoptera.butterflyhouse.com.au... (quite variable)
Sorry can't type 'chrysolarentia'
Yes, there are some similar moths there too. Thanks Mark.
Maybe Chrysolaretia sp.
Thank you Dr :)
