Hola amiga,
no te puedo ayudar,
pero estos bichitos son tan chiquitos, que conocerlos es complicado no??
buena macro y color,
las antenas y cabeza son originales.
saludos y suerte en la búsqueda.

Llevo rato mirando Maite, pero nada. Lo que he visto en Internet en varias fotos de P. pulveralis, es que tiene los ojos bastante saltones y los de la tuya son pequeñitos y tb las alas con más puntitos ( quizás de ahí le viene pulveralis ), Es muy difícil y en tu toma , al estar "plegada" aún cuesta más la ID. Esto de las polillas es un rompecabezas. Yo tengo un par de docenas archivadas sin id para cuando me jubile jajaja
Mira esta web para comparar a ver si te aclara algo http://www.lepidoptera.pl/Countries/CO/Index_P.htm

Un abrazo y suerte

Hola Maite,
Ya os debeis haber hecho muy buenas amigas, de haber pasado el día juntas! :-)
La verdad que yo tampoco tnego la menor idea del ID.
My buena luz y claros detalles los que conseguiste, a pesar de no estar ubicada en un sitio fácil y despejado.
Enhorabuena y gracias por mostrarla.
Un gran saludo,
JM

Hi, dear Maite, and thanks for sharing.
You have reflected this little moth with great details. I like the sharpness, excellent texture reproduction and natural true colours. Scenery is so attractive and natural too. You have entered us into a fine microcosm. My compliment and best wishes.

I have been in the same situation as you. Sometimes Ihave to wait 2 or 3 days before I can ID...and in doing so it gives me mjuch greater use of the meanings and methods of presentation. So while it may seem a chore....it is actually learning tool. One by the way which you put to good work in your post. A well exposed (to the digital) image. Fine fun...or work...whichever...

Ciao Maite,
questo Piralide non è molto fotogenico, ma tu sei riuscita lo stesso a renderlo interessante.
Complimenti: è facile fare belle foto a farfalle variopinte, ma spesso le più interessanti sono quelle meno vistose!
Ciao,
Marcello

Hola Maite, he buscado en internet el nombre del insecto y es el mismo que tu dices, te paso la página dónde la encontré http://ukmoths.org.uk/show.php?bf=1383, aunque la tuya está cerrada pienso que es la misma. Un saludo, enhorabuena por la foto. Sira

Hola Maite,
Parece que andas muy bien de vista para haber localizado en medio de la hierba a esta pequeña palomilla. Buenos detalles y exposición. Sin duda una muestra de la riqueza de la naturaleza en todo un reto para quien pueda ponerle nombre.
Saludos cordiales,

Hola Maite,
Excelente toma de buena definición y mucho detalle como en todas tus fotos, por lo que veo le estás cogiendo el gusto de fotografiar también las mariposas nocturnas; siento no poder ayudarte en la ID. Un cordial saludo

Maite,
Looks like it is a "night" prowler type MOTH. "batu" will know its ID.
Great focusing job.
Excellent clarity.
I too have this Moth in my library.... no ID.... hence, have not posted it. Will wait and do further research.
Most friendly regards,
Mario.

Pues si eres cabezota para todo...ya me imagino a tu novio comprándote otra cámara...je,je.
Bueno me consuela saber que no soy el único que pasa por estas dificultades a la hora de identificar una flor o una planta. A veces ocurre que hojeando manuales sobre flora, me quedo embelesado mirando las fotos de otras que no tienen nada que ver con las que busco.
A veces tardo en publicar porque no me gusta hacerlo sin poner una ligera notita al menos.
Bueno, espero que tengas "suerte", verás que sí, e identifiques esta polilla.
Saludos desde Gran Canaria, Juan Luis.

You are being quite funny in your note, Maite!
I can understand your frustration at not being able to be 100% sure about the ID of this moth.
Nevertheless, the species you have captured is quite unique. Maybe the light is a bit harsh, but the presentation is very nice.
TFS and regards.

Hi Maite,
You sound just a bit frustrated with this one, pig-headed fits the moth..and your efforts to ID it. There are just too many species of these da#m things ;}

Hello Maite


Very good POV and DOF.
The focus is sharp and shows excellent detail.
The lighting is well done,and the warm colours are well saturated.
Even these plain moths deserve their day on TN.
