Semioptila ansorgei is a moth in the Himantopteridae family. It was described by Walter Rothschild in 1907. [1] It is found in Angola. [2]
The body, the basal area of the forewing, a spot at the apex of the cell of both wings and the basal third of the hindwing are yellow. The rest of the wings are brownish black and transparent. The hindwings are of nearly even width from the base to the apex, the abdominal margin being very slightly dilated beyond the middle in most specimens, and the tip of the tail feebly widened. [3]

The dryandra moth is a species of moth that is considered to be the sole member of the family Carthaeidae. Its closest relatives are the Saturniidae and it bears a resemblance to many species of that family, bearing prominent eyespots on all wings. The common name is derived from the Dryandra shrubs of the genus Banksia, on which the larva of this species feed, and is hence restricted to the south-west of Western Australia where these shrubs grow. Other Grevillea shrubs may also be used as host plants.
Curetis acuta, the angled sunbeam, is a species of butterfly belonging to the lycaenid family. It is found in Indomalayan realm. Curetis acuta is sexually dimorphic, the sexes differing in dorsal coloration of the wings, however their ventral wings are similar and of silver color which reflects sunlight. The reflection of light by silver ventral wings plays a role of signalling during flight, camouflage while at rest or during hibernation, and lowering body temperatures by reflecting the sunlight.
