Thanks, @Gilma. Looking forward to seeing some nice Moths from CR next year :)
Your spotting has been nominated for the Spotting of the Week. The winner will be chosen by the Project Noah Rangers based on a combination of factors including: uniqueness of the shot, status of the organism (for example, rare or endangered), quality of the information provided in the habitat and description sections. There is a subjective element, of course; the spotting with the highest number of Ranger votes is chosen. Congratulations on being nominated!
Thanks, @Maria :) Wanted to show the transparent window in the close-up.
Especially like the last two photos!
Thanks, @Nuwan for the ID. Leanna gave me the full ID to Corymica pryeri. From the link she sent me, the distribution of this specie was not known in Philippines :D Yes @Chun, this one is a special find for me :)
