Savannah Campground in Karijini National Park
Specimen collected by @dianadavey on 8/7/24 from Wooli, NSW, and sent to me to rear (same specimen as appears in https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/227899469). I received it on 15/7/24 and the adult moth eclosed today sometime between 2:30-3:10pm. Looks like it’s probably in the Lepidoscia genus, but I’m struggling to identify it. It’s in a glass specimen tube, which made taking photos a bit tricky.
@ethanbeaver - Are you able to identify this one?
