Field Notes

Habitat:

Small town hotel bathroom, surrounded by thick bush and sal forest. There are rivers, which join nearby. Across the bigger iver are tea plantations. Hot region.

Notes:

I spotted this and other moths with a bit of a plan - I kept the bathroom windows (facing the rivers) open and the light on the whole night (not recommended !), got up early morning and started clicking!
