Chariaspilates formosaria
Chariaspilates is a monotypic genus of moth in the family Geometridae erected by Eugen Wehrli in 1953. Its only species, Chariaspilates formosaria, was first described by Eduard Friedrich Eversmann in 1837. It is found in swampy areas from Europe to Japan.
The wingspan is 38–43 mm for females and 31–37 mm for males. Adults are on wing primarily in June and July. Sometimes, a second generation may occur, which is known as C. formosaria f. autumnalis. Adults of this generation are on wing in September or October.
