Hello, Though I have good Lepidoptera literature I do not find a name for this very nice small moth that sat behind our house yesterday. Does anyone know it? Many thanks, Sundew Edited by Sundew on 04-06-2008 22:32 |

I knew I'd get an ID - many thanks, Jorgen! I overlooked the species in my book as it was drawn in natural size, which made the beautiful wing pattern hardly recognizable. This moth is really great, isn't it? Cheers, Sundew |
