[QUOTE="Dom F, post: 3347020, member: 73343"] Part III Four new species for me from this week plus one that I have not as yet been able to confirm to species level: [B]Acontia crocata[/B] (Acontinae) - I am still checking this ID as this is quite a variable genus but this matches this species on the readily available literature [B]Brevipecten captata[/B] (Catocalinae) - a very attractive little moth, body length on more than 20mm [B]Lasiolopha saturata[/B] (Chloephorinae) - the vast majority of Australian Nolids are grey / brown with intricate patterns, attractive in their own right but not easy to separate with available literature; there are though a few colourful species such as this one! [B]Rhynchodontodes chalcias[/B] (Hypeninae) - there are two similar species but this seems to match chalcias [B]Targalla[/B] (Euteliinae) - there are several very similar species of Targalla and as yet I have not found a good match for this one, but i am still checking on BOLD!
