KS083 Orvasca subnotata

KS083 Orvasca subnotata
Erebidae (Lymantriidae), Lymantriinae - Wingspan: 30mm.

Two specimens came to our trap on the 10th September. There seems to be considerable confusion with this family in the Oriental Region, as depending on who describes it, it can be placed in the Genus of Euproctis or Orvasca. Currently, Boldsystems and Wikipedia refer to this species under the Orvasca Genus, so I will follow their decision as it seems to be the most current identity.
