Seaside volnyanki. The place is still the same. They flew into the light.
1-Cifuna locuples (red and smaller males)
2-Lymantria matura (male)
3-Pida niphonis (female)
4-Pida niphonis (female melanist)
5-Laelia coenosa (female with a clutch of eggs, flew to the light and immediately laid)

Dear Morozz.
I won't say that. but in my opinion, there is no tason flavipes in the fauna of Russia (to be honest, I did not find such a specific name in relation to the genus Laelia).
According to the article above. Chistyakova in the "Determinant of insects of the Russian Far East" we have a species of coenosa flying in Primorye.
Below is a link to the Japanese with their subspecies sangaica. In my opinion. no different from your butterfly in the photo:

PS on the website of the Siberian Zoological Museum there is a list of volnyanki from their collection, compiled, as I understand it, with the participation of experts. Dubatolova. This list can be used as a reference list for the fauna of the former USSR (it is almost complete for all Bombycoidea groups).

We have really very interesting fauna in Primorye.
Thanks for the photos.

Here ..., I decided to support a little volnyanok Lymantriidae.
In 2003, the female Calliteara virginea left me a "gift" right in the bag - about 20 caterpillars were hatched from it. They ate oak "slowly and sadly" all summer. Very sympanic, however, like most caterpillars in butterflies of this family.
Butterflies flew to the Far East in early June, so the maturation process actually lasted all summer, until the end of September.
A photo of the pupa, however, not the most successful, is attached.
Last-instar caterpillars were photographed. By the way, I haven't seen Gus's photo anywhere, including on Japanese websites.
Photos of butterflies will be added later.
(Yes, the pupae overwintered and the butterflies hatched in the spring)

Here are such excitements ....
