Thank you very much for correction Jakubko. I added this to your mission. By the way, can you provide ID for attached? I am really curious about this one. http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/37254062

Awesome spotting, Rieko! It looks like the male Gypsy Moth might be to the right. The scientific name for the Gypsy Moth is Lymantria dispar. Could you please add this to my mission, "Moths of the World?"
