Spotting

Description:

A small moth which only showed it's underwings. About 18mm long. The way it was flying, the size like a Zizina sp. and the fact that it always landed and closed it's wings immediately made me initially assume it was a butterfly.

Habitat:

Flitting around near night lights at the local school.

Notes:

Yet to search for species...
