Help with Identification Please:

Is this a Willow Beauty (Peribatodes rhomboidaria) ? The lines don't seem to converge as they should but I know they are very variable.

Thanks.

Alison

Hi Alison,

The two cross lines on the forewing are parallel where they join the dorsum, so you are correct with Willow Beauty (Peribatodes rhomboidaria).

Regards,

Steve
