Pale brown moth with wavy lines, 8 mm long, that always looks greasy because of the reflections from it's scales. On July 12th 2013, a male and a female were found mating. It is wonderful to find them together. The male is a little smaller and more pale, with less defined markings. In the 3rd picture, the female is on the top, in the 4th picture, the male is on the top.
Came to an ultraviolet light in the garden, San Cristobal de Las Casas, 2,200 meters.
