Field Notes

Description:

I have recently spotted the same moth in the same area, though this one looks quite different. Their wing patterns are variable. I've added this one to show how different they can look. Hooked wing tips and scalloped edging on wings also. Same moth can be seen here http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/1978236002

Habitat:

Attracted to nightlight near native bushland.
