How unusual! I wonder what benefits there are to having those 'missing' parts to the wings.

Strange looking moth. Somehow I was reminded of a bat.

Unusual wings. One might think they were damaged, but with the "scoopwinged" in the name, I guess they aren't!

Same here, looked like a damaged wing, but glad to see it's not. Excellent capture, Christine. V.
