Many Plumed Moth

Alucita sp.

Habitat:

Nocturnal, on a window near a light source under a tree

Notes:

I think this is a many-plumed moth but unsure. New camera, Handles light in a different way at extreme settings so this is not a great image. Alucita pygmae? Another species that is a long way from the accepted range. Are we seeing the immense climatic upsets the country has been facing change the ranges or have they all just not been noted here. There are a LOT of species whose ranges are not supposed to extend beyond Queensland in my findings lately
