Alexandr, thanks, from the very beginning I felt this was Menispermum dahuricum, but Convolvulus hitched me and got me wrong direction) Started my search from food plant, I was looking for Convolvulaceae family and which larvae fed on them. Should be also added to food plants: plus to Menispermum larvae also feed on some Lardizabalaceae and Berberidaceae.

Larva is resting on Menispermum dahuricum, Eudocima tyrannus' main food plant accorded to V. S. Kononenko (2010).

Or, just version, Eudocima falonia, species also spread in Primorye. Images of these two species are confusing, I'll try now to find some links to falonia. tyrannus are in plenty on other websites.

Very interesting, also lean to Notodontidae or another close family, checked quickly some Japanese websites, didn't find.

I'm not an expert, tried to identify at least family, no way) Huge diversity. Only one seemed similar, Notodontidae (please forgive me if I'm wrong). Experts please help! Me and kids appreciate!
