    cheers,

    Roger.
    Thanks Roger (The Moth Professor) for identifying the specie of the moth.
    The one I gotten happens to be a female.
    Manage to check up the specie on other site and it provided some more info about this Moth (also known as tiger Moth) and its caterpillar's picture.
