About 40mm wingspan. Wings emerald colour with dark reddish trailing margin and straight, pale yellow costal margin. Wing patterns consist of two arcing pale jagged lines. Some long fur noticed just over the thorax. This one looks male by the feathery antennae..

Drawn to night lights at the local school which is surrounded by dry eucalyptus forests.
Notes:
I am aware of a lot of mistakes and confusion over the subtleties with these green geometrids on the web so caution is in order with ID. http://bie.ala.org.au/species/Prasinocyma+semicrocea#
