BUG OF THE DAY

BotD 8 - 03/29/24 DEARLY SORRY!

This is the Barsine rubricostata!

These eye-catching moths may not have much information set out about them- hence them not having a common name- but they are absolutely unforgettable! These moths are from the family Erebidae, which is home to some very common moths, like the large array of Underwings! These stunning insects can be found in Peninsular Malaysia, Sumatra, and Borneo, generally over the summer. While these moths aren't too studied, they are definitely unforgettably beautiful!
