The message
from
contains these words:
The Cinnabar is a Tiger moth.. just not THE Tiger moth.
Not in my moth books it isn't! I'll check tonight but I suspect it
may even be in a different family.
Same family - Arctiidae, but different genus. Or more, depending on
which tiger.....
Cinnebar = Tyria jacobaeae
Tiger (ruby) = Phragmatobia fuliginosa
(wood) = P plantagenis
(Purple) = Rhyparia purpurata
(scarlet) = Callimorpha dominula
(cream-spot) = Arctia villica
(garden) = A caja
(Jersey) = Euplagia quadripunctaria
