Bonjour Je ne connais pas d'équivalent en français, mais le terme anglais renvoie à Stenoglene perissinottoi :
"The new species are called Stenoglene perissinottoi and Stenoglene clucki, and belong to the moth family Eupterotidae. They are more commonly known as “monkey moths” because of their hairy bodies."

agree Maximilien Petitjean : Le Phobetron Pithecium correspond au "Hag Moth", or les images de ce papillon ne ressemblent à première vue pas au "Monkey Moth". En revanche, les photographies du "Eupterote Lineosa" oui.

Sur YouTube, ils parlent de "Phobetron pithecium" comme autre nom donné à la "Monkey Slug" mais cela n'a peut-être pas de rapport.

Sinon mon deuxième lien est une image de "Monkey Moth". Avec la couleur et la forme, il devrait être plus facile à identifier.

The hag moth (Phobetron pithecium), is a moth of the family Limacodidae. Its larva is known as the monkey slug.

Eupterote lineosa is a moth in the Eupterotidae family. It was described by Walker in 1855.[1] It is found in Nepal, India and Sri Lanka. The wingspan is 70-90 mm. The forewings have a single, almost straight, oblique postmedial line with at most five waved lines before it. The two spots beyond it towards the costa and two towards the inner margin are generally present. The outer waved line is indistinct. The colour varies from pale primrose-yellow to bright ochreous yellow.
