    OK, here comes first 5. Two geometrids, one notodontid (?), one catocaline (?) and a no-idea-ine

    The first is Ericeia inangulata (Catocalinae).
    The last one is Besida (Ortholomia) xylinata (Notodontidae).

    Sorry, I can not find the other 3.

    Thx a lot, I had an inkling about the genus of Ericeia inangulata, and am happy, that the last one was a notodontid as I thought, though I could find nothing similar.

    The geometrids must be one geometrine (Hemithea? or something like that) and one ennomine (Cleora, Boarmia, Alcis, Ectropis, Peribatodes or something like that).

    #2 I can not even get a family to (is it a noctuid, a geometrid or a pyralid or something else entirely), but never mind it is worn and boring anyway

    I will upload more unIDed tonight

    Here are some more...

    3 ennomines (1, 2, 8)

    assorted noctuids (4, 9 and possibly 11)

    a drepanine (3)

    a hypenine (5)

    # 6 could be herminiine or rivuline, but maybe not...

    # 7, 10, 12: I have no idea...

    Theses are now getting difficult!

    1&2) I agree most probably Ennomines.
    3) A Drepanidae, but I have no books on this family.
    4) You may be right about family, but I have come across several Notodontids resting in a similar fasion, but this is not in my book.
    5) Hypena iconicalis (Hypeninae).
    6) Sorry, no idea.
    7) I think it is a Drepanidae. The wing shape is similar to those of the Phalacra genus.
    8) Noctuidae. No idea.
    9) Noctuidae. No idea.
    10) Anuga sp. (Eutelidae). The resting pose is very distictive. I suspect A. multiplicans, but the hindwing tornal spot is larger than normal, so I can not be positive with this.
    11) No idea.
    12) I have seen several of the Arctiinae with this resting style. However, this is not in my book.

    Sorry, it is the best I can do with these!

    Yeah, I was also totally bewildered by these. But you nailed some, thx a lot!

    What about these?

    The first (# 1 and 2) I have no idea, but suspect it to be easy?

    #3 Bombycidae

    #4 Ennominae

    #5-6 Lymantridae (Lymantria + Euproctis s. l. ?)

    #7 Lasiocampidae

    #8 Arctidae

    #9 Ennominae

    #10 Lymantria?

    Another 12 un-ID'ed...

    I can get to family or subfamily for most, but that is all, except the one that you earlier said Anuga to, I am including that in case it gets it closer to positive species ID
