Artace Cribraria Moth Atlantic Rainforest
REGUA had a "moth wall" which blew me away. The Atlantic Rainforest has no light pollution to distract the moths from the desired spot. A mercury vapor lamp or incandescent light is shined on the wall and the moths come and spend the night. At dawn you can go out and photograph them. After that the owner went outside with a feather duster and gently urged the moths to fly away. I am guessing this is the Artace cribraria, called "dot lined white" moth.
