    Default Green and Orange moth

    A blurry pic of a very beautiful moth (I'm having problems with my camera!). The hindwings appear to be predominently orange away froim the tornus, which was dull brown.

    I'll look it up in the morning as I cream crackered at the moment and can't type straight - really need some sleep!

    cheers, Roger.

    Achrosis sp., but can't match to anything in Moths of Borneo
    Geometridae, Ennominae, Hypochrosini

    cheers,

    Thanks Roger. I've just looked at John Moore's site, and has just got 'Hypochrosis sp.' as well. Looks like I'm stuck at this point for the time being!
