Hooktip Moth

Description:

The first photo has not been cropped. The second one, taken from slighter closer has been cropped so that the lace like tracings are clear.

Habitat:

Terrace of a homestay at the foothills of the Himalayas. The moth stayed here (on a tiled surface) for two whole days. It moved into a shaded area when the day got too hot.
