Scientific Name: Endromis versicolora English Name: Kentish Glory Swedish Name: Skäckspinnare 

The Kentish Glory is a moth in the Endromidae family that is found in parts of Europe. In Sweden, it is quite common and can be found in all regions except the very north. The female can be seen in the first picture and is joined by a male (the darker one with thicker antenna) in the second picture.

This moth feeds mostly on birch, linden, and alder species. 

Thanks to Paxon (@rhamphotheca) for helping me identify this species!
