Scoliopteryx libatrix
About an inch to inch and a half in length, about an the same across. Darker brown moth with red and white markings.
Grassy area near the city. Found him on the soffit of my place.
Very docile moth. I poked him then he flew away. I've never seen a moth like that.
I am envious...I have wanted to see this moth since I started photographing them in 2008
