Field Notes

Description:

Sorry for the lighting, but this time I was caught totally off guard. This small moth (about 1 cm) came into my house at night. I photographed her almost without leaving the comfort of my couch! Usually happen to me... :)

Habitat:

MG, Brazil's interior.

Thanks for the tip, Chamalka! In fact it is almost perfectly identical, but the geography does not match. I don't know, but I suspect they are different species...

Thank you so much, Jennifer and bayucca. I will check it out now! ;)

I agree with Limacodidae and Parasa sp., but not Parasa chloris, this is not found in Brazil.
