Armactica conchidia

Currently in an area characterised by coastal dune systems and we’re seeing a good diversity of moths including:

Grammodes ocellata - the Large-eyed Box-owlet

Armactica conchidia - both female (bottom left) and male (bottom right)

Eucyclodes buprestaria - emerald green moth on a beige stone wall

Large plume of smoke and clouds over a controlled bushfire

Just had the biggest number of moths visit our moth trap that we’ve ever seen. There must have been 400+ moths along with several new species.

There was a large bushfire near us yesterday, not sure if that contributed to the bumper numbers 🤔

Side view of two moths, one much larger than the other. The larger moth has white wings with a pattern of black and red patches across them. It is facing a much smaller moth that is brown in colour. Zooming in shows that the much smaller moth has several patches of raised scales making it look quite spikey.

It's always nice to bump into a friend

This beautifully coloured Heliotrope Moth (Utetheisa pulchelloides) was sitting face to face with a very tiny and rather spikey looking Leptozestis sp. moth at our moth light recently.

Pixelart illustration of a rodent-like marsupial on a large sausage-shaped bunch of flowers. The flower bunch sticks upright, but the top, where the marsupial sits is bent downward from the animal's weight. The individual flowers are a creamy white against a dark brown background. The light brown marsupial sits with its tail wrapped around the flower bunch while holding one of the flowers in its hands. The artwork has a colour palette of browns and creams with some green between the flowers.

photographing and identifying some plants, figured out this was a lily but someone online suggested (correctly) that its "Gagea pratensis" #inaturalist #berlin #flowers

If anyone submitted checklists in 2025 then you were one of:

Top view of a large moth whose wings are a bright lemon yellow with a variable black serrated line near the bottom and with each forewing having two black spots.

Anthela inornata

We are seeing quite a few of these lovely moths at the minute.

They are quite large, with a wingspan of 6-7cm, and can be seen in early autumn in Western Australia and South Australia

#teammoth #ausinverts #wildoz #Lepidoptera #inaturalist

Top view of a moth with ochre brown forewings that bold white stripes down the. The stripe in the middle is forked towards the base of the wings

The wild weather over the weekend has certainly mixed things up with an influx of different moths into our Perth Hills garden.

This lovely moth is Hednota tenuilineata, a species endemic to Western Australia and a new observation for us.

A small moth resting on the ground with the wings forming a triangle on its back. The moth is a plain light grey, with a dark brown line running across the wings, and a series of small dots lining the edges of the wings. The individual scales on the wings can be seen in the image.

Gesonia obeditalis (family Erebidae) spotted at Upper Seletar Reservoir Park, Singapore on 29 March 2026. A close look reveals intricate details in the scales on the wings.

Top view of a moth that has brownish-grey patchy wings. The forewings have been concertinaed to make them very thin as have the hindwings.

Phazaca interrupta - the Plain Roll-moth

A new moth for our Perth Hills garden last night and definitely one of the more unusual ones we’ve seen.

This moth concertinas its wings while at rest, giving it this unusual resting posture.

As a nature photographer, I tried to combine documentation with image quality — several photos ended up in publications & guidebooks.
And as a biologist, I have learnt so much about biodiversity.
#inaturalist was a game changer for me.

Observations: www.inaturalist.org/observations...
Enjoy :)

New personal milestone - 10,000 observations on #inaturalist @inaturalist.bsky.social !
4,290 from Poland, the rest from 20+ countries
~3,450 total species
Several first species records on the platform, or range extensions. Data feeds into @gbif.org - contributes to #biodiversity research.

Sunrise over a tree filled valley with a pinkish peach sunrise showing beneath patchy clouds with a thin layer of mist at the bottom of the valley

Anthela inornata - top view if a large bright yellow moth with a zig zag line across its wings and two darker spots

Pseudanapaea denotata - side view of an orangey pink moth that has long scales at the back of the head and several darker spots in the forewings

Moerarchis clathrata - side view of a moth with a black and orange head, wings that are pearly white with thick black lines randomly across them, and a wing tips that are feathered orange and black

A beautiful sunrise and some spectacular moths… what better way to start a Monday!

Happy #MothMonday!

A monkey sitting in a tree, looking at me. It has mainly dark fur, with a mask of white fur around the eyes, nose and mouth. There is also some white fur on the chest.

Another monkey on a tree looking down at me. This one also has dark fur. There is also white fur around the eyes, nose and mouth. This one has more white fur on the chest area, compared to the previous one.

A female monkey resting on a tree trunk with a child clinging to her from the front. The female is looking away from the camera, but the child is looking curiously at the camera. Both have dark fur on their bodies.

A group of Raffles' banded langur (Presbytis femoralis) in the Central Catchment Nature Reserve area, Singapore on 29 March 2026. I was excited to see a mother with a curious child. :-)

Zomariana doxasticana - small brown moth with four dark markings that partially track the outline of a circle

A Dasygaster sp. - relatively large moth with brown wings that gave a pattern of darker wavy lines

Stegasta variana - new record for our garden- micro moth with forewings that are cream and brown

Oenochroma vinaria - Pink Bellied moth - large moth with reddish brown wings that have a pale yellow line running horizontally and a dark edged white spot on each wing. Wings are slightly blurred as the moth didn’t fully settle

Still very rainy in the Perth Hills but at least 12 species of moth visited our Perth Hills garden last night (along with hordes of flying ants!), including these:

Zomariana doxasticana
Dasygaster sp.
Stegasta variana (NFG)
Oenochroma vinaria

Side view of a small moth with light brown forewings that gave a pattern of darker and lighter patches

We’ve had a very wet 24hrs (with 62mm in our rain gauge so far) ☔️

Despite the weather one brave moth visited our Perth Hills garden last night, a Eucalyptus Leafroller (I think).

Maybe not the prettiest of moths but certainly the bravest.

A small, slender damselfly perched on the edge of a leaf. It has a black body and tail with transparent wings. The body has bright blue stripes, with a blue band running between the eyes.

Collared Threadtail (Prodasineura collaris) spotted at Upper Seletar Reservoir Park, Singapore on 13 April 2025. A small, uncommon, damselfly, but can usually be spotted at that park.
