If Machete and Vasco were insects, Machete would definitely be a white plume moth (Pterophorus pentadactylus) but what would Vasco be?

I've never seen a living thing that looked this much like a windblown tuft of asbestos fibres.

For Vasco, I think I'm going to go with african peach moth (Egybolis vaillantina) that someone suggested earlier.
