I am not at ALL a lepidopterist. However, I recently found a beautiful
moth and have been unable to identify it. So I thought maybe you
experts could help me.
The moth was found in central Virginia. It was notable for its
pink and yellow striping, and almost fur-like yellow head. Having
looked at a bunch of moth pictures, the only other pertinent thing I
could tell you is that its body did not extend below its wings; the
wings were wide and deep and went the length of its body. It was
probably an inch or less long. Any help would be appreciated. I'm at:
