Very fortunate to see this moth at Lower Peirce.
Picture not very clear but just to share and hope the name is correct.

Not far off with the name - seems there have been a few extra letters thrown in somewhere along the line.
Correct name is Spirama retorta (Clerk, 1764)
Current placement is in Noctuidae (or Erebidae!), subfamily Catocalinae
cheers,
Roger.
