Scoparia spelaea
A small moth about 12mm long with two palae yellow lines across a brown background.
In a local nature reserve. Wicks Reserve.
Also called 'Scoparia pusilla'
Maybe this one is actually an Aussie native 8-)
Couldn't find this one. The best suggestion I have is that it's possibly one of the Hydrillodes. Wing shape and antennae are correct, and the moth is generally drab as described for the genus. You'll probably have far better luck!http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrillodes...
