Schinia villosa

 

This Monday’s moth is a duo of Schinia villosa (sovice) resting on what I am assuming is their host plant (Erigeron sp.). I snapped this shot around 9,000 feet up on the Kaibab plateau in Northern Arizona last month. A fire must have burned the area a few years ago . . . → Opširnije: Ponedjeljak Moljac
