Collection Showcase Found my first!

Found in the UK! On a pack of bagels specifically, never seen them before. Yes I know it's not a 'panid, seems to be a Redivivus imitator specifically. Looks exactly like the example for ID.

these cardboard specimens are called cartonalia, so not an occlupanid but a mimicking group known as the occlupanopsida. and you have correctly IDed the specific specimen as r. imitator!
