You really got some beauties on this night!

Looks like a tiger moth (Arctiinae). Very similar to Symphlebia sp., but no matches that I could find. Posted 6 years ago

  Thanks! If you imagine the wings folded, it could be this:

  ...which is suggested as Symphlebia perflua. If so, this would be a pale one (or perhaps gender matters). Posted 6 years ago

    It could be. That was the closest I could find as well. I couldn't find any images of pale ones though, which would have convinced me on the species level ID. Posted 6 years ago

      Agreed, a single sample is not that convincing in this case. Will leave it at genus, thanks! Posted 6 years ago
