Postplatyptilia nebuloarbustum is a moth of the family Pterophoridae. It is known from Ecuador.[1]

The wingspan is about 20 mm. Adults are on wing in October.

Etymology

The names reflects the conditions of the collecting spot, a high altitude cloud forest.

gollark: Oh, FeS2, not Fe2O3.

gollark: <@288035900980461579> Could you photograph the question or something? It does definitely look like you need 16.5 moles O2 for 3 moles Fe2O3, so the question is probably asking something else?

gollark: 2Fe2O3 is 2 moles Fe2O3, 11O2 is 11 moles O2.

gollark: The important part is how many O2s per Fe2O3 you need.

gollark: It probably did just mean 3 moles of Fe2O3, not 3 times 2 times Fe2O3.
