Gum-leaf Skeletoniser - male

Uraba lugens Walker

Description:

A grey moth, a little over 10mm long. Both wings showed a broad patchy grey band bordered by jagged lines and a dark straight line running through the band. Antennae were short and feathery.

Habitat:

Spotted under bright lights near a sports field.

Notes:

Similar to moth in spotting http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/225... but smaller. Thanks to Peter Marriott for the ID. This is the male moth - an adult of the Hatted Caterpillar seen in this spotting http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/876... Family: Nolidae
