Certainly not Phorocera Looks very black, which suggests to me Epicampocera succincta but I would appreciate Theo's confirmation  |

Theo was on holiday. On the first pic, you can see DC 3 + 4. So, indeed, no Phorocera. An alternative could be Parasetigena. However, if you look at the bend in vein M in the right wing of the first pic, it looks distinctively Blondeliini. So my guess would be a Blondeliini with strong facial bristles, DC 3 + 4 and hairy eyes. That can only be Compsilura concinnata. Which has no ocellar bristles. I can't see any on the pic as well. It still is educated guessing Theo |

Grrrr - Compsilura was going to be my second guess |

Theo, thanks you for this good lesson. It would be very interesting that each ID is as detailed as you have just made it. Hoping you have wonderful holidays. Chris, the important thing is to test. Even if you are among the best you cannot gain each time Edith |
