The Common White Wave (Cabera pusaria) is a moth from the family Geometridae and is commonly distributed throughout Britain. Often confused with the Common Wave (Cabera exanthemata), but is generally whiter with more parallel cross-lines on the forewing. Photo taken by David Palmar as part of a moth trapping session at the Scottish Entomologists' Gathering in Dundreggan.
