    Don't think this is Letis (a South American species), I opt for Anisoneura aluco instead, hope you agree.
    This species is truly remarkable. The photo looks stretched and distorted, but that's the actual pattern of the moth, quite an optical illusion!     Posted 4 years ago

      Thanks, Ferdy for the correct ID :)
      Indeed the markings on the wings was confusing, when I first saw it due to the eyeshine, I had originally thought there was a bug under a 'tree bark'! lol       Posted 4 years ago
