Four-spotted Palpita Moth

Palpita quadristigmalis

Description:

Beautiful moth which I spotted yesterday and does not seem to be specified in the guide I am using. Its most beautiful features - a golden like front of wings and antennas - cannot be seen in the pictures. It was light pale yellow with quite transparent like wings and the golden features at the front. Its wingspan was about 3cm long.
