Other families of moths from Thailand

Brahmaeidaea

 
found this two nights running in some local woods- what a beauty! Interesting that the patterns on the two sides don't entirely match.If you disturb it during the day it tends to rock backwards and forwards to show its displeasure rather than flying off. One night the end of July, five of them arrived all at once!
