Noctuoid moths (except Arctiinae)


This moth sub-category for the superfamily Noctuoidea contains the large families Noctuidae and Erebidae as well the smaller Euteliidae, Nolidae, Notodontidae and Oenosandridae.  The Arctiinae also belong to this superfamily, but are distinctive and well known so are given their own moth sub-category

I can't find a match in Epicyrtica (genus) , but there about 17 named Calathusa (genus) species. Looks quite similar to C. marafima

@clarehoneydove : it would be really good if you could rear this one to an adult moth for an ID.

I think the 2 dorsal organs on the penultimate pair of segments indicate Lymantriinae, but it does not look like any of the 25 published photos of larvae species in that subfamily , so probably one of the other 50 or so species with no published larval photos.
