Laelia cf. robusta, Janse, 1915

I'm not dead, honest! Just working for minimum wage... so taking as many hours as possible to earn enough to pay rent.

Hopefully you've noticed the cf. (confer, click for wiki to tell you more, Latin, common abbreviation typically meaning that it's similar to the names species, but may not in fact be it). This is largely because the genus Laelia is huge, and I don't have the time just currently to search for an rule out every species. 

However, on the basis that the Laelia moths I have looked at all look quite variable, and in most moths external appearance is quite an important identifying feature, I'm going to venture reasonable confidence that this is in fact Laelia robusta.

So, without further ado, on with the show:

Laelia robusta

Janse, 1915

and here it is:   

 I apologise for the rather characterless portrait - it had a special talent for hiding its face with those spindly forelegs and a vast amount of facial hair. Photographed in Leopard's Hill, Lusaka, Zambia, in March 2013.

NOTES: Species is suggested based on comparison to images of alleged L. robusta, here (a flickr image, captured and presumably identified by Geologist Nigel Voaden), and, by its being featured on the apparently reputable Afromoths page for this species, reliably identified).
