Thanks!
Thanks for the re-touch on the pic, it really does look much better. And thanks for the interest in the pic. I had no idea it was a first here, explains why I couldn't find it, well, that and my lack of experience. I sent you an e-mail a short while ago, Be Well, Jason

4753 - Nymphuliella daeckealis - China Mark Moth
I cropped, resized and sharpened the photograph. Very nice first live photo of the species to be posted here. This moth is of interest as a biological control of waterlillies.

Please contact me at BPatter789@aol.com regarding permission to display on Plates at Moth Photographers Group photos of moths and larvae that you post here. Thanks, B.P.
