    Here comes some more provisionally categorized as noctuids, though I am not sure all are, there may be a nolid or two and an erebid among them:

    Noctuidae:

    This one looks so characteristic, but I can't find it, not a noctuid after all?
    Thaton2015_08_27_19_01_01_DxO by Jan Fischer Rasmussen, on Flickr

    Noctuidae or Nolidae or?

    Chrysodeixis eriosoma, I believe:

    Plusiopalpa adrasta, I believe:

    Possibly Anomis flava (Erebidae, Scoliopteryginae):

    Two that I think, I got right already.

    First Helicoverpa armigera, that I know from before. I caught it here in Denmark 3 times, though it only occurs here as a rare-uncommon migrant from Southern Europe or Africa and also reared one from a larva imported with peapods from Kenya:

    Bastilla joviana (Erebidae, Erebinae)

    4. Chrysodeixis eriosoma should be right.
    The similar C. acuta has a dark band bissecting the FW apex.

    5. Plusipalpa adrasta. is right . Typicla large hairy palps.

    6. Anomis flava is right ;widespread.

    7. This appears to be Condica spp. likely C. illecta.

    Almost certain. A similar species is C. conducta.

    No. 2.

    This has to be male Niganda donella. Notodontidae , a common species in Thailand.

    Strongly marked form.
    http://www.thaibugs.com/wp-content/g...otodontida.jpg

    All those peripheral dark spots are there but less distinct.
    See PT (paratype) 2 in the book.

    TL Seow : Cheers.
    PS. N. radialis & richaaardii have the costal base whitish.

    No 1.
    This looks to be Amyna species close to Amyna axia ( = A. octo) Pantropical.

    This looks correct for Simplicia concisalis. Indo- australian , common.
    The FW is dark brown; dark discal spot; marginal area beyond the white line not paler.
    I happened to have MoB vol on Herminiinae.

    The only field shot have been rendered purple.

    The two lines converging near the apex is characteristic.

    http://www.boldsystems.org/index.php...e?taxid=260923

    Another Thai species , Susica sinensis.

    PS. I would say a high probability.

    However it does not seem to match any species.
    But I believed this is Orgyia osseata.

    As stated in the text it is very variable & may have red or grey zones.
    It is closest to the example of male no. 4 below.
