Il-ġimgħa li għaddiet Jim Hayden ħaseb li l-kamla li stajt kienet Oecophoridae Awstraljana. Kienet raden tajjeb għax hemm ħafna kamla kbar u tal-isturdament f'din il-familja mill-Awstralja. Wieħed mill-aqwa għandu jkun dan, Wingia lambertella (Oecophoridae), maqbuda fuq Black Mountain f'Canberra Ottubru 23, 1955 (Kollezzjonijiet CAS). 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)
Iva, 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/).
