Description

Attracted to lights at night at Glen Helen Gorge Lodge. This sighting was submitted to Questagame and this was the response “The long wing aspect-ratio, the colour and the first 3 lines on the forewing are a good match to Elesma subglauca. Unfortunately, there are no ring-like patterns nearer the base of the forewing, as in E. subglauca and the hindwings appear to be grey rather than white with a grey margin, although they may just have wider grey margins. Really need to see the hindwings. The other 3 unnamed species of Elesma illustrated on BOLD, also all have white hindwings, but all come from around the coast. I suspect it is an undescribed inland species of Elesma.”
