Field Notes

Description:

White with royal blue coloured dots (I think it is ink blue, not black. Or is it an optical illusion because of the colour it is resting on?). Fuzzy head.

Habitat:

Monastery near Kewzing Village. A rural, remote and hilly area of Sikkim. Although it was raining and October is not a good month for moth-ing, we saw many moths on the walls, stairs, gates and corridors of this monastery near the tourist town of Ravangla. It is a short drive from Kewzing.
