User's notes

Similar to the American moth Allagrapha aerea; same attitude as Arrade sp. but that's where the similarity ends.

Moths of Victoria say there are three Plusiodonta species, with the P. arctipennis type specimen originating from Sydney, so this identification may be regarded as provisional.
