Field Notes

Description:

I'm having a go at IDing this one as a Faggot Case Moth. Clania ignobilis
??? Having one of its sticks much longer than the others. Definate ID would be much appreciated.

Thanks Martin. I wish I could identify the tree it was on, but I dont know it's name. I'm going with this ID then. Thank you :)

I think you are correct. They can differ according to which type of branch they are on because that is what they build their houses from. http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/8895860
