We have been treated to an extended northeast monsoon here in Bangalore. And every now and then I am presented with pleasant surprises. A few recent moth sightings. Identification help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Ulhas.
Hi Bijoy,
Moths are very difficult.
The first and the last two seem to be Noctuidae family Catocalinae sub-family. I think the last one may be an Bastilla sp.
Not too sure about any of them 🙂

Ulhas
