Brindled beauty
The brindled beauty (''Lycia hirtaria'') is a Palearctic moth.
==Description==
The brindled beauty is a large-bodied furry moth, which has a pattern which provides near-perfect camouflage on tree trunks and also gives the moth its name.The forewing ground colour is usually grey with black dusting.There is a curved anterior and a curved exterior cross line limiting the midfield. The Hindwings are also grey and have two or three crosslines. The females have a pale yellow suffusion on the wings and the front edges of their forewings are paler. The moth has a wingspan of 4–5 cm.〔Carter, David. Butterflies and Moths, Dorling Kindersley, pg 200〕
