| | | a moth for id please
Sorry don't even know where to start with moths. I have scanned the Gallery and the reference pages on wab but can not find a match.
Flew into my house last night. About 1 inch long and 3 quarters of an inch wide at the back. 2 bi-coloured spots on each wing 1 black/white and 1 red/black. Overall a chestnut brown colour. wavy greyish line across both wings at rear. appears to be wearing a fur coat between its head and thorax. a hunchback appearance from the side with three distinct spines to the rear of it.
A name for it would be great.    
regards tn
