Subfamily Chrysauginae, La Isla Escondida, Colombia

I'm afraid I only have a side view from this very weird moth.

Cool! The only moth I know with fuzzy feet is in the Galasa genus. So, a good place to start might be the Subfamily Chrysauginae. Posted 6 years ago, modified 6 years ago

    I think you are headed in the right direction with Galasa though. This moth is strikingly similar (minus the wing positioning). Could be in the Scaly-legged Pyralids (Subfamily Chrysauginae)?
