Already on the webiste, but is it E marginata or another species of Euproctis?
JD : Could be another species, need to check the other ones listed. Differences observed wrt the images on MOI & other references are - 1) the missing FW marginal spots, & these are also not evenly distributed & sized 2) lack of the orange tone on the FW, antennae & thorax, though this could be due to camera lighting, 3) only the terminal abdominal segment is yellow, whereas the images in other references have the abdomen broadly yellow in the first & last segments. Also check the HW - it appears to have yellow only in the marginal area.
SS: Nygmiini-genera spp. for now
