Question Moth confusion



I have a moth that looks like a faded Common Marbled Carpet (complete with 'cloud' in the middle of the wings), but the tip of its abdomen is pointing upwards, just like a Phoenix. Does the Common Marbled Carpet do the same thing as the male Phoenix with the tip of its abdomen, or is it just a Phoenix that looks like a CMC?

Any help gratefully accepted.

Steve.
