   the moths we follow are female. =)

   heet: and this is a diving camera no less.

   and thanks to an earlier flickr post, I recall seeing something similar in Hawaii
   

   I wonder if the coloration differences are like Darwin’s finches – optimizing for locality.

   Wow… what a great macro shot, Steve! That was always one of the higher things on the list of criteria for choice of camera for you (and me as well). Nicely done.

   Outstanding macro…..would agree with you regarding the color differences. The pressure of selection is more powerful than we give it credit for.

   Phenomenal design in nature, not all spirals are deadly, it all depends… there are exceptions..
