    Default Moth from Pulau Pinang

    Sorry, Roger, I know you told me the Genus, but I have forgotten. I tried looking up in volumes 15 & 16, but could not find it. Could you please ID this for me?

    Wow! The wing pattern looks like the symbol from olden chinese times. If i'm the predator i'll think twice before attacking my prey.

    Cheers!

    Spirama retorta or S. helicina

    I can't tell the two apart!

    cheers, Roger.
