Rescued from a swimming pool in the south of Portugal, September. By the wing venation I would say it belongs to the Notodontidae family. Two things puzzling me: the wings hold upright, like a butterfly, and the transparent wings, with very few scales visible. Could both be the result of the imersion in the water? Joaquim Gaspar Lisboa PS - Is there any Lepidoptera forum? |
