This gorgeous moth fell (dead) into our garden. We're all ooing and aahing at it, but I don't know what it is. :) Identification advice welcome! (Cork, Ireland, adjacent to deciduous forest)

@gamehawk
I do believe you're right! The image at top has more distinct hind wings, but the lower image of the "White Bodied" variant looks about right. Think mine was a female: long but not bushy antennae. Thank you!
