Emperor Moth (Aurivillius fuscus)

Family Saturniidae

I have never seen so many strikingly beautiful moths as during my time at Dinonyane!!

This one was no exception and is about medium in size as far as Emperor moths go but large if measured against most moths.

No information is available on it.
