Proteuxoa sanguinipuncta
A beautifully plush looking moth with chromed antennae and a classy tri-coloured fur coat and stole. At rest the back is cream, light and dark brown wavy lines with some rich orange spots overlaid. (22mm length)
Wall at night. Suburban fringe to open eucalyptus forest.
Some moths certainly dress well for a night out. Those antennae look exactly like a flexible stemmed lamp we have.
