Hi tomk3886, thanks for the Link to Gil Wizen. I haven't come across it before. I had a quick look this morning and it is just amazing. I would love to be able to take such great pictures and there seems to be so much information there. I will spend more time exploring the site as soon as I have a moment. I will have lots of spare time coming up soon because the typhoon season is approaching and then I can be stuck indoors for days on end. That's the time of year when I catch up on things I have put on one side for later (I am a terrible procrastinator). Regards, John B. p.s. I hope you can ID the moth. If I see anything close enough to be of any help, I'll let you know.
I think it is in the Family Tortricidae but I haven't found this one. Have you ever come across Gil Wizen's website?https://gilwizen.com/ Worth a look.
Hi tomk3886, I don't know a lot about moths, but when I saw your pictures, my first thought was the Family Tortricidae. If you have not already checked, it might be worth looking. John B.
