Puriri Moth
Also know as Ghost moth. I haven't seen one of these for years. A friend found this one on the ground looking worse for wear. She put it in a patch of sun and it eventually started to stretch its wings and look a bit more alive. It may have been affected by the heavy frost we had this morning.
It’s NZ's largest moth with a wingspan of about 15 cm.
