    1. That looks like a bulls-eye! I could only find Scorpiopsis pyrobola in that genus and identified it as such, but upon a closer look Scorpiopsis pyrobola seems to have a lot of dark spots not seen in my photo. Perhaps a close cousin :) Posted one year ago

  2. Crazy pattern! Posted one year ago
    1. That to me is the appeal of moths: they're like nature's paintings. Posted one year ago
