Geometer Moth

Thank you. It may well be the same family, but not so sure about the genus or species, it seems there are so many similar ones that very few can even be identified down to genus level and actual species can only be determined by dissection! This applies to virtually all the micromoths (below 20cm wingspan) of which there are tens of thousands if not hundreds of thousands of known species and perhaps as many again still unknown. For this reason the same common name may be used for a complete genus and sometimes even higher. So Emerald Moth it may very well be but which one we may never know. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microlepidoptera
