Field Notes

Habitat:

Brazil's interior, MG and ES states.

Notes:

It was not me who found her. It was she who found me! While I was using the computer, it landed next to me. I've seen this species more than once here, but it is not very common.

Thank you again, bayucca. I had seen this species here at Noah, but from a different angle and so I did not think it could be the same moth. Nice!! Thank you, friend.
