This moth was spotted resting on a pair of boots on one of our Fundamental Bushcraft courses earlier this month. Can anyone identify it?

The moth, correctly identified as the Black Arches (Lymantria monacha)[/caption]
As many of you have pointed out, this moth is in fact the Black Arches moth (Lymantria monacha). Siegfried was the first to answer correctly, winning a £10.00 voucher, but well done to everyone who got it right.

It’s a Lymantria monacha or Black Arches! Nice Photo!
It looks like a gypsy moth.
I think it’s a female gypsy moth.
