Khao Ramrome, 990 mt, South Thailand.

20/30 knots of wind, a pleasant 15 to 20 C. a lot of fog. Not easy to set up a MV ligh. Shame because, although a last less than 2 hours, it was very busy, moths speaking.

Hard to take sharp pictures with the white sheet flying like a sail... :bsmile:

Euhampsonia roepkei (Notodontidae, Dudusinae), (https://flic.kr/p/DQ8QSV) or, as the friend Les Day write: "is similar to the northern E. serratifera. In MOT, vol.5 (page 44) it states that E. roepkei is the Sudanian sister species and MAY be found in S. Thaland"
