August 2011. The Cook Islands sent a large notuid moth for identification, thinking it was a species of Ericeia.

A member (moderator) said that it was indeed a species of Ericeia, possibly levuensis Prout or leighardtii. These sopecies are very difficult to differentiate unless you have identified specimens to compare with.
