Easy one, until you struggle over Mimica and Lunata...

Why there is no Membracis lunata on iNat? Because Lunata is obviously a synonym of Foliatafasciata (which also is formerly called Membracis c-album). At least it is indicated when you search for Membracis lunata. And Lunata is not listed in the list of species.

So, please, check the story again, yours in Mimica :-)

bayucca Uranid Moth
Uranid Moth commented on by bayucca Gangtok, Sikkim, India3 years ago

I would agree with the ID, although the markings are not really consistent with Fuscifrons, however, there are not really a lot of trustable references around to compare with. Epiplema bicaudata is also quite similar. I would call yours Epiplema cf. fuscifrons and Uraniid Moth. It is not really a Geometer moth, but part of Geometroidea.

Hi Chun, any ideas about separating the 2 species?

Crambid Moth commented on by bayucca Tawau, Sabah, Malaysia3 years ago

I still think this one is an Eoophyla sp., not Talanga. The markings are different. What do you think, Albert?

Arachnura scorpionoides is the only one found in South Africa. So it this one.

Acrididae, Rhytidochrotinae, Opaon sp., unfortunately there are at least 3 other species around, which looks very similar.

Alagoasa decemguttata is the actual and correct name. Omophoita cyanipennis is a different beetle! I somehow remember that it was once called Disonycha.

I think it might be Gonatodes concinnatus, female.
