Description
Hi there.
What a nice name for a moth in English - in German they where called "Seladoneule". This is a Scarce Merveille du Jour (Moma alpium) I found on the same locations like the other ones. Hope you enjoy the colors - I never saw such one before.
If you look close enough you will see a face on her back - under the frill in the center of the wings.

I see the face! What a great pic of this gorgeous creature.
Nice photo, beautiful object.
Damn! You have a practical encyclopedia of moth species at this point- There must be a way you can get this featured and published somehow- your photography is far superior to stock photos of these specimens. Not to mention that the little guys you capture are quite photogenic and elaborately decorated- not to mention rare!
Markus, You are the moth king. Excellent capture. :)
cool shot markus, you do em best.
Nice!!!
Great capture, love the colors pattern, reminds me of a cow.. lol
Beautiful macro shot.
thanks for sharing such an awesome moth
Very well done Markus! I too see the face, interesting markings, Clive
