It could be, but it looks more like something in the family Lasiocampidae to me. Or, possibly Notodontidae? Posted one year ago

  Fully agree that multiple families should be considered. Even then I'm still unable to find anything similar, which is weird. Posted one year ago

    It's so distinct in appearance that I had hoped it would be easier to ID -- or at least to find something similar! Posted one year ago

        Wow, good to see it's seen before. Maybe in time somebody refines the ID. Thanks for the hard work. Posted one year ago
