Interesting asymmetry

Maybe! Three nights at the Mamaku Sanctuary on Rakiura. Moths found on the predator-proof fence, in trhe forest, or drwan to UV kights placed on trhe fence overlooking the forest.

Making a start on a large batch from the upper Sinbad Gully, Fiordland. Drawn to light.

I circled the area several times over 30 mins but didn't get another look at this one.

Day

Very large moth under a beech/matai canopy.

I assumed this was going to be E decoranda when I saw it but it isn't!

Common on gravel dunes.

Beaten from shrubs in the understorey of mixed forest by @brucemckinlay.

In limestone area.

Seen in alpine herb field.

photographed near mercury vapour light

Larva on Carmichaelia australis, 1 Oct 2020, emerged 8 November.

Common in snow tussock grassland.

I think this is the big undescribed Graphania from the Chathams

Only stayed for a few seconds. If my ID is correct this would my first observation of I. scutata.
