Hi all, this is my first post in the forum! Previously, I just dumped my photos in FlickR waiting for some kind soul to help me ID. And I wana say thanks to Roger who is the person to help me ID most of them so far. :)

Below are some photos which I have been eager to know their ID for quite some time. They are taken somewhere in Central Catchment.

This is a small fellow, it is resting on a buffalo grass blade.

From the crest of hairs at its abdomen, is this moth a Plusiinae?

Thanks for the help! Really appreciate it.
