Field Notes

Description:

This is a small green moth with white lines running across its' wings.

Habitat:

I really could not find any information on habitat.

Notes:

I would really like some help with verifying the identification of this moth. I could not find a lot of information on the Southern Emerald moth. There is another moth (Wavy Lined Emerald moth) that looked very similar, but some of the markings varied from that of the Southern Emerald. Any additional sources would be appreciated.
