Last week C. Posui Hayden conieci tinea erat Australian Oecophoridae. Sed quia bonum coniectatio tinea attonitus in magna familia tot ex Australia. Hoc unum est optimus, Wingia lambertella (Oecophoridae), capta in Niger, ligula in October 23, 1955 (CAS collections). The larvae feed on Eucalyptus – and I for one wish this was an introduced species here. We have these pesky invasive trees everywhere, why not the moth to go with?
Wingia lambertella (Oecophoridae)
Etiam, a spectacular moth and large for an Oecophorid. Have not found this one yet on my aussie holidays, but have collected W. aurata, which is equally large and almost as spectactular (http://www1.ala.org.au/gallery2/v/Oecophoridae/Oecophorinae/Wingiaaurata/).
