- Uncertain/Unknown - Insufficient Data
- difficult to identify - detailed examination required, often a Gen Det and/or specimen and quality photographs are required.Confusion Species: Anacampsis blattariella
ID pointers: Two forms one fairly unmarked pale yellowish-greyish and a darker form. The darker form is grey with an obvious black area in the dorsal half of the forewing forming a large mark when the moth is at rest (Browner in the paler form). A white band across the wing (creamy in the paler form). Variably speckled in both forms.
Distribution: (First record: 1916 ) - (Last record: 21/08/2015 at Melbourne ) - Presumably a localised species in the county where there is Poplar & Aspen. Very few records, and since 1986 this is the only modern day record.
