| | | China-mark Moth ID
I was scrabbling about looking for an insect box this morning (another spider in the bedroom  ) and found one with a specimen already in it (I really need to tidy up more...).
This China-mark Moth appeared in my aquarium last year presumably having been happily living there as a caterpillar for some time. The plants in the aquarium came from a variety of sources, including Singapore so it quite probably is not a native species. Does anyone know it's identity?
Thanks

] | You're right, it doesn't look like any of 'our' species (Beautiful China-mark is close but not right), not sure what it is though. |

It is 11mm from top of head to wing tip. | | |
