Crambinae

Description:

Head down and tail up like a playful puppy! A very small moth (12mm length); pale grass colour with few tiny dark flecks; at rest the wings are rolled into a tube shape and the head is always held down. The head looks well disguised with pale eyes and facial fur.

Habitat:

Mature grasses.

Notes:

Crambinae Mesolia sp. This little creature is always found face down and tail up. Is it trying to mimic grass heads like a seed or bract or empty husk?
