02 Sep 2025 A NEW MOTH

I noticed a small dark patch on the dark grey door of the garage in Central Ave, which could only have been a moth, as a closer inspection revealed. I was on my morning walk, and had to return with my camera and a step ladder. Peter Hendry confirmed it as a new species for my Moths album, which is an increasingly rare and all the more exciting occurrence. It occurs in Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria and Tasmania. Wingspan is about 3.5 cm.
