KERMOTH REVISITED....

Back in October 2011 I posted about this very pretty moth which I christened Kermoth. At the time I had no idea of its name.  But thanks to a fellow photographer (Graeme Hutchinson) who sent me the photo below and researched the name through the Queensland Museum, I can tell you he is an Emerald Moth.  Wonder how they came up with that name??
  Look at the eyes on him!  I'm still calling him Kermoth though...
(And many thanks Graeme, for the photo and the link to the Museum)
