Hello! I’m on vacation with my family at Ba be lake in Northern Vietnam and the boys came across this little one. Sadly it was already dead  http://instagram.com/p/BjhkUQ0HUVT |

Ah, yes, it's a seasonally quite common Cossid moth, which we also have here in Thailand. I know it as Xyleutes mineus but it is possible the name has changed in the 30 years since the publication I use to identify it was published.

It is quite beautiful..I did a quick google search after you mentioned it was possibly reclassified. It seems to have been renamed Chalcidica minea.  thanks for pointing me the right way, I genuinely appreciate it! |
