Index of Subjects As usual, I think you are likely right after looking at some of the pictures of C. mollissima. This species accounts for teh weird tufts and hairs on the legs. And, as you say, the sacrificial pose may be strange but OK. But I still wonder about that sickle-like thing underneath (it does not look like a moth leg but maybe it is) and general dampness on the moth. But I might be overinterpreting normality. Hope so, for the moths sake.
