Thanks bayucca, the male and females in this genus are quite different in pattern.
Did I said tricky? In this one I was obviously quite confident... http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/16311250 Yours is most probably the female.
Tricky genus! Similar one: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anoba_trigonoides
Leuba, you can make millions by designing a cape like this moth:-)
