Hi Peter
You are right, one expects the head/carapax area to be covered by hairs. This almost looks like elongated scales, although some are thinner and looks like thick, bristle hairs. keep in mind it is a small moth and this is a considerable enlargement. My ID guides are not of much help except that I could establish that it is probably one of the wood borer moths of the Cossidae family.

What an enormous magnification! I always thought that these moths were covered in hairs.....but by the looks this mothhead is covered in feathers( or something simular).Any idea what the correct name is.....?

An excellent photo, Joggie. I have also found that these moths are excellent subjects full of surprises. Well photographed - a real sense of perspective with the nice blur.
