No Assembly Required

Female Assembly Moth - Hodges#5150 (Samea ecclesialis) - The Space Coast of Florida

 

Dah Wife thought it looked like the little guy was on the surface of the moon. Moths do indeed like the moon, but I seriously doubt any have ever been there.

 

FYI - This little guy (a little over a half inch wing tip-to-tip) was so small that the tiny micro bubbles on the painted surface look like tiny craters on the moon. I also like how tiny lepidopterains make their scales look sooo big that they almost look like shingles!
