Can you identify these moths, please?

[Roger C. KENDRICK]

Hi Bill,

No. 3:  Ophiusa tirhaca (Cramer, 1777) [Noctuidae; Ophiderinae/Catocalinae -
depending upon one's interpretation of Catocalinae]. From southern Europe
through to Oriental and Australasian regions.

No. 4:  Eudocima salaminia (Cramer, 1777) [Noctuidae; Catocalinae]; India,
Orient, S.E.Asia, Australia.

No. 5:  possibly a Xyleutes (Cossidae), would need to refer to Australian,
Bornean or Peninsular Malaysian literature to sort this one out.

hope this helps,

Roger.
