User's notes

Attracted to our outside light along with a couple of Rain Moths. I was able to identify this male specimen after referring to a book 'Moths of Victoria - Part 1 - Silk Moths and Allies - Bombycoidea' by Peter Marriot. This book is part of a series of eight, with the other parts covering other moth families.

Yes, I agree but can't confirm yet while we are waiting for the taxonomy system to allow new species to be added
