Interesting Fact:
Like other buck moths, this species is diurnal and flies during the day, often in sunny conditions, which is unusual for most moths.
This specimen is preserved, fully spread and professionally mounted in a clear PE display frame, making it ready for immediate display. Collection data is included.
