Pseudargyrotoza conwagana

 Hi there,

This turned up in my trap last night. It's new to me, but I think it can only be P conwagana, but what a wonderful specimen! Please confirm that I've got it right - and is this an unusually well-marked individual?

Thanks, David

  1. Hi David,
    Correct - lovely name and a smart-looking moth! The field guide image doesn't really do it justice. It is variable but the darker forms (as in your image) are what I see most of.
