Guess the insect!

In the section about complex groups, I put a photo puzzle. While the genitals were not looked at, it was not clear what kind of animal it was.
Who will guess - that well done!

Yeah.
What if they're marching silkworms?

In fact, there is an idea what kind of family this is, but it's too exotic to think about

Something like Thyretidae

It's still a minus sign.
Hint - the family is our own.
Not cossida, I'll tell you right away! I got them under the guise of cossids, then cooked them, went through all the reference books, and found the family.
I'll tell you right away-no one guessed who I sent it to (they are not on the forum)!

Is it possible to make a larger photo-harpy of a male so that the whiskers are visible at least?

30.01.2010 11:14, Yakovlev

the usual feathery ones. There is no better photo. Sorry.

30.01.2010 12:29, barko

guess who he is!
Limantrida, something like goldfish

30.01.2010 14:28, Pavel Morozov

What if I assume it's Notodontidae? The male is quite similar in shape to something like Sumeria.

scoops?

30.01.2010 16:23, Ilia Ustiantcev

Maybe I should wander off? Sesiidae?

30.01.2010 16:23, AntSkr

And not cocoonworms, the whiskers of the female are thread-like, and thread-like whiskers can only be found in three genera, which this species absolutely cannot be.
Who else can have a feathery mustache?
If the scoops, as Konung wrote, turn out to be incorrect, then only specks remain, although it is very difficult to imagine such a speck...

Nymphalids lol.gif lol.gif lol.gif

30.01.2010 16:39, AntSkr

in general, moths are the best option so that no one will guess before, since they are very, very different from moths.

30.01.2010 16:40, AntSkr

I don't understand, but what is the dot on the label? Where is it?

30.01.2010 16:45, vasiliy-feoktistov

I don't understand, but what is the dot on the label? Where is it?

In my opinion, something African (like Nicaragua)? That's the question!!

30.01.2010 16:45, lepidopterolog

Isn't it a bear? The male's whiskers are too feathery, but that can happen...

30.01.2010 16:48, AntSkr

This is South Africa=RSA (Republic of South Africa), I didn't realize right away...

Yes, I was confused "slightly". Here both Africa and America turned out (it became quite bad)mol.gif. Well at least I guessed Africa smile.gif

30.01.2010 19:10, Pavel Morozov

Well, we will guess by the method of "scientific poke".
Pestrianki!

"Stick": And not the bears-whether? Here-after all, a crafty Novel-after all, he knows ("genital" got) smile.gif

Yes pisya that is necessary...

Roma, don't give me any more suggestions, and most importantly, even if someone calls out the correct option, don't tell me about it right away and don't limit the contest time to two days. Give us a week. And prize (virtual) uchredi smile.gif

30.01.2010 20:08, Yakovlev

Call call-he's in London

30.01.2010 20:10, AntSkr

Well, you can try Drepanidae...

30.01.2010 20:10, Svyatoslav Knyazev

no prize is definitely needed for such a puzzle! smile.gif
Thyatiridae?

30.01.2010 20:10, Pavel Morozov

Maybe psychids?

30.01.2010 20:11, AntSkr

it would also be funny if they turned out to be saturniyam

30.01.2010 20:16, lepidopterolog

Then the hawk moth smile.gif

30.01.2010 20:20, Svyatoslav Knyazev

Tineidae

30.01.2010 20:26, AntSkr

does a micra have a feathery mustache? I didn't notice it myself...

there are, there are

30.01.2010 20:31, Dr. Niko

And it seems to me, although it is probably incorrect, that this is something kossoid: say, Metarbelidae. True the family is not native frown.gif
In general, I support psychid.

You need to find the determinant of African Hepialidae to answer this question wink.gif

This is definitely not a Thin wire! And don't search (meaningless).

30.01.2010 20:45, Alexandr Zhakov

If you accept that it can be a micra. I will make a guess Euplocamidae, our family and somewhere even similar.

30.01.2010 20:50, Alexandr Zhakov

And to catch up, another family of micro Ethmiidae, although this seems less likely to me.

30.01.2010 20:51, AntSkr

Maybe Pyralidae?
