Perhaps I have actually identified a moth. Is this really an Arctiinae (or is it written Arctinad)Ectypia clio? Can you verify? Thanks so very much.

Clio Tiger Moth
Thanks, Bob. Isn't this moth the most fantastic thing you've ever seen? My granddaughter saw it first and she's very pleased with herself and so impressed by the furry "cloak" look.

clio moth
Thanks so much to everyone for helping with I.D. Also for moving it to the correct place. I haven't figured out how to move it to the proper section. ???

image placement
At the time you posted the photo, there was no genus or species page for it, so putting it in the Moths section was fine.
