Painted lichen moth (Hypoprepia fucosa) #8090

Found in Larose Forest during an evening of mothing. I don't often see these moths with their wings open. This is a common species that readily comes to lights, often in good numbers.

What a beautiful combination of soft colours and diffuse edges.

I love these moths. I have had them here the last couple of nights. Love that you got the wings spread!
