Hi all,

Some time around 1994, we had an explosion of these moths in Trinidad (West 
Indies, just off Paria Peninsula, Venezuela). They had apparently arived 
from Venezuela and immediately caught the imagination of the public because 
of their colour and numbers. I think most people agree that they were not 
present or in significant numbers before this event. They are now well 
established in Trinidad. This 'stray' seems interesting. Does anyone know of 
their occurence in the wider Caribbean?
