[QUOTE="Dom F, post: 3348371, member: 73343"] Part II [B]Catoria delectaria[/B] (Ennominae) - this is quite a large moth (wingspan 60-70mm) and being green I fell into the trap of assuming it was an Emerald (Geometrinae). Needless to say I could not find a match, it was only when I posted it on an Indo-Pacifc Moth Group as an as yet un-identified Aeolochroma species that I was corrected and told that it was not an Aeolochroma so I looked further...first impressions can be sooo wrong! [B]Cernia amyclaria[/B] (Oenochrominae) - this was new to me this month, have now caught it a couple of times [B]Dysgonia senex[/B] (Catocalinae) - must have been a fresh emergence of this species as I have been catching battered individuals recently but this is very fresh [B]Hypospila dichmotoma[/B] (Catocalinae) - my first of this species for several months [B]Ozola ANIC1[/B] (Desmobathrinae) - a new "tribe / sub family" for me let alone a new genus. There are two currently described species in Aus but this does not match either, it is closest to species labelled ANIC1 on BOLD [/QUOTE]
