Light Blotched Emerald

Lovely moth!

Thank you, Christiane, you've made my day!

It appears to me Comibaena connata is a better match than Uliocnemis partita because Uliocnemis partita has more angular wings than rounded. Uliocnemis partita: http://lepidoptera.butterflyhouse.com.au/geom/partita.html You are right, Christiane, that Comibaena bajularia is indeed a European moth that does not range to Australia, though it has some similar species in Australia.

Lovely!
