Field Notes

Description:

A small moth with a wing span of about 20 mm in shades of brown. The anterior half of each fore wing was a darker shade of brown, separated from the rest of a paler wing by a thin diagonal cream line. I could see a single dark spot in the middle of each fore wing. Wings were tented. Legs had dense setae. Antennae were held straight out

Habitat:

Near suburban gardens and native trees, after a warm night.

Notes:

Need to look for an ID..
