Description: I think its a moth, and that it was dead. No movement when I gently touched it. It was about 8cm from wing tip to wing tip. Probably about 4cm in length. It had light brown edging to its wings. Then a white smudge-like edging, then a brown stripe, then a narrow white stripe, then various shadings of brown up to top edges of wings. There appear to be "flaps" folding under at base of wings, and the right flap seems to have a dot on it. The body is hairy with a reddish upper part, and a narrower creamy bottom end.

Description: Found trundling along the floor at a fast clip. The second she hit the soil she burrowed, and I had to speedily dig her up again to get a photo. Then I left her to it. 26 days to emergence of moth :-) Once she'd left, I carefully sifted the soil and found the cocoon - a delicate silk web of sand around the pupal casing.
