Field Notes

Description:

I found this specimen in a tree in the courtyard of a school where I teach. It was "groping" the trunk with its snout.

Habitat:

The region that I found it is a region of transition between the Cerrado and Atlantic Forest.

Notes:

-I'm not really sure if "snout" is the right English word for that part of the Moth-
