Field Notes

Description:

Thanks to my son, who spotted and photographed this beauty, an all-white moth some 3cm in length. It is not really all-white, as some black dots are present on wings, and antennae and legs are black as well.

Habitat:

Seen inside an apartment in semi-urban area of Geneva lake valley.
