Caripeta hyperythrata
Flaming Red and orange moth, 1.5 cm long. The 4th picture was taken in the same place on the 29th of July 2013. Family Geometridae.
Came to an ultraviolet light in the garden, San Cristobal de Las Casas, 2,200 meters.
Thank you bayucca for the identification. The collection specimens sure don't do it justice!
Geometridae, Ennominae, Caripeta hyperythrata. Nice one!
