No. 6. Spilosoma hypogopa. Some authors assign it to Spilarctia, as Spilarctia hypogopa.
Family Erebidae, Arctiinae. Arctidae is now a subfamily of Erebidae.

Very variable markings, (eg. FW bands may be minimal) but recognised by pale creamy antennae & prominent dark spots along the lower margin of forewing.
Note black legs.
Perfect matches from Singapore.

Thanks again Dr Seow for more ID...

No 9. Most likely Perixera argentosa. Geometridae, Sterrhinae.

There are three similar species in which the large HW silvery spot may be heavily blackened.
The other two, P. monetaria & argyromma are montane.

ID Correction.
It looks like it should be P. argyromma.
The irregualr fascia (bands) on the forewing matches; note that on the HW runs very close around the blackened spot ,different from that of P. argentosa.

No. 5. A Tortricid moth likely subfamily Olethreutinae.

Here is a similar example.

No. 8. Poeta quadrinotata. Erebidae, Erebinae, Catocalini.

The FW mid-margin black spot is characteristic of Poeta.
A 2nd smaller species P. denotalis have a 2nd mid margin black spot on the HW.

No. 1. should be Arctornis plumbacea. Erebidae, subfamily Lymantriinae.

I have thought all Arctornis are white & rest with wings flat, but the smaller ones rest as such.
In this posture & angle of shot the wingshape is distorted & the FW apex appeared very rounded off.

Although the image in MoB is low-res & poor, the description & colour matched well.

PS. 5 is too difficult. 10,000+ spp. of Tortricidae.
Note Clothes moths Tineidae have different headend & wingshape.

Four species of Hippotion are very similar & easily confused.

H. echeclus. FW with outer & lower margins relatively straight ; abdomen with stronger gold band; FW pale band diffuse & dark band poor.
http://tpittaway.tripod.com/china/h_ech.htm

H. rafflesii. FW margins relatively straight ;abdomen ?stronger gold band: FW bands better defined, the dark band broader.
http://tpittaway.tripod.com/china/h_raf.htm

H. boerhaviae. FW with margins strongly convex(outer margin) or excavated(lower margin); abdomen bands poor; FW bands better defined, the dark band broad.
http://tpittaway.tripod.com/china/h_boe.htm

H. rosetta. FW with margins strongly convex /excavated; abdomen bands poor; FW bands lees well-defined, dark band narrow..
There is a dark FW shading anteriorly but this also seem to be present to some extent in H. boerhaviae, though not stated as such.

It is a very useful information...

So, no. 3 is Hippotion rosetta right? At the first time, i though it is H. rafflesii or H. boerhaviae.
