Hi all,

Spotted this unknown cat. Is this a butterfly cat or moth? Looks more like a moth? :hmmm:

It looks like the cat of a species of Slug Moth. I think I've read somewhere that they are poisonous!

looks close to Darna pallivitta (Limacodidae)
something of a polyphagous species (a pest at times, often in palm oil plantations)

cheers, Roger.
