Redneck Moth

Description:

Note that its common name isn't the real name. There is a distinctive bright red line between its hairy head and thorax. Its main color is creamy brown. Legs and antennas are black, and so are the dotted patterns. There can be pattern morphs in this species. It has less black spots on the lower streak on its wings than other moths of the same species.

Habitat:

Lower forest elevation of Kinabalu Park, Kundasang, Sabah, Malaysia.

Notes:

I found it in the same resting hut as the atlas moth. It is resting on the stony wall of the hut, awaiting nightfall. >>>Map accuracy : 50m diameter.
