Pollanisus sp.
Metallic blue moth approx. 1.5cm long.
Box-ironbark Forest
Wow ID help stacked to the roof :) Nice find Vinny. I'm still waiting to get my first one. A greenish one escaped me the other day.
Zygaenidae, Procridinae, Pollanisus sp., my closest guess would be Pollanisus viridipulverulenta or Pollanisus apicalis. They are both very similar and the blue glim may disappear during life due to the easy loss of scales.
