Field Notes

Description:

Several Peribatodes rhomboidaria moths spotted while pollinating Spiranthes spiralis orchids. I managed to snap some pics, last October. As far as I know, this must be the first time the species was spotted pollinating these flowers.
Spotted and photographed in Volos city, Greece.
