I was wondering what sites you would recommend downloading shaders from? last time i tried downloading a shader i got mackeeper despite all my adblockers :(

hey thanks for asking!! i use this site and i’ve never had a problem with it!! let me know if that still gives you an issue :)

and sorry about mackeeper :/ i imagine you got something called “mackeeper 911″ which is like a ripoff of the actual mackeeper. if you need help getting rid of that here’s a link! i have a mac and i’ve gotten malware before, it’s nasty. good luck with your shaders!!

#2638 - Nyctemera annulata - New Zealand Magpie Moth 

AKA Leptosoma annulatum, Nyctemera annulatum, Nyctemera doubledayi, Nyctemera tripunctaria and Mokarakara.

A day-flying Erebid moth endemic to all parts of Aotearoa, and feeds on Senecio as a caterpillar. The introduced ragwort Senecio vulgaris has been quite a boon to the species.

The caterpillars are black and yellow, and bitter to the taste. That doesn't stop the shining bronze cuckoo (Chalcites lucidus) from gorging itself on the larvae when they're available, regurgitating the empty skins later.

Quite similar to the related N. amica, which is found in Australia and Aotearoa, and with which it may interbreed.

Fairlie, Aotearoa New Zealand
