Moths from Northern Thailand

Not too sure about those black spot on the legs of A. cygna from Taiwan.

Post 42 no 1.
I 5hink it is correct as E. maculatrix.
The Episteme can be very confusing.

It would appear E. maculatrix have the FW markings white & the HW black patch large & broad.
E. nipalensis have the FW markings yellow & the HW black patch narrower.

H. propitia is right.

TL Seow : Cheers.
I see what you mean. there are a few others with more spotted legs.

Perhaps a mixup with the unknown A. formosensis.

The other three in Taiwan.
A. l-ngrum.

A. kanazawai
http://www.jpmoth.org/Lymantriidae/A...kanazawai.html

A. flavicostata. The FW scales are arranged differently rather than the costa being yellow.Perhaps another mixup & this should be A. formosenssis.

This one labelled A. cygna may be the real A. flavicostata.

No. 4 Hyblaea puera range world wide.
http://lepidoptera.butterflyhouse.co...ybl/puera.html

No. 5 Uncertain possibly this.
http://www.pestnet.org/SummariesofMe...inea,Guam.aspx
or.
http://lepidoptera.butterflyhouse.co...l/synaema.html

No 6.
Hypocala substrata looks correct . Lens-shaped mark near apex.

TL Seow: Cheers.

Hi Seow

Thank you so much - I did know Hyblaeidae at all - I was very sure my examples must be some kind of Noctuoidea...

Now that you have introduced me to them, I have been googling them all morning. Is it possible, that my pics (from the same hotel balcony two days in a row) actually represents one species, namely this one:

You could be right, but I think both are more likely to be H. puera.
Typically H. constellata have the FW cilia near the apex white though perhaps not always so.
This white patch may be large or reduced to linear mark.

The images in Bold System show this in most images.
(NOte IDs in Boldsystem are provided by contributors & occassional mis-IDs occur.)

Hyblaea puera is a serious pest in the Teak plantations of India & Bangladesh & by extension eastwards into the Indochinese region.

The lack of this white edge near the FW apex suggest both are H. puera.
Here is a female from Queensland Australia which is also a match for the 2nd Hyblaea.

Hi Seow

I am convinced, I did not notice the white cilia, it seems to be a very good mark. Thx again for you help and patience

best wishes

Some more - this should be Psimada quadripennis, Erebinae, right?

Eublemma semirufa, Boletobiinae?

Eublemma semirufa - Thaton2015_08_27_22_23_DxO by Jan Fischer Rasmussen, on Flickr

Another Boletobiinae around Oruza, Zurobata or Cruxoruza?

Thaton2015_08_23_23_40_DxO_DxO by Jan Fischer Rasmussen, on Flickr

Also Boletobiinae?

Enispa elataria, Boletobiinae?

Enispa elataria - Tha Ton20141229_14_36_DxO by Jan Fischer Rasmussen, on Flickr

Pericyma perhaps?

Those you have ID'ed are correct as far as I can tell.

No. 4 Cerynea species, could be this.
The white marks on the HW are broader though. ( Correction Nechesia albodentata.)
https://www.flickr.com/photos/hkmoth...7622504830588/

No. 6 Pericyma species most likely this.

This should be Eublemma (or Autoba ) rubra.
http://lepidoptera.butterflyhouse.co...con/rubra.html

A similar species E. cf albostriata is Philippine in origin but seem to have find its way in HK.
