| | | Re: Snout Moth? I'd say it's one of the 'Minors' (Oligia/Mesoligia sp.), they're a tricky group and some can only be separated by separation, however I'd say your moth looks pretty good for a Cloaked Minor - Mesoligia furuncula

| | | Re: Snout Moth? I don't think it is as it doesn't seem to have the "snout"
Might have to get me Skinner moth book out and have a look!! |

| | | Re: Snout Moth? I agree with GUYF, it is probably a 'Cloaked Minor' of some kind. I imagine this was from last years catch?

| | | Re: Snout Moth? Yep I agree with Cloaked Minor and I also agree with Naturegirl with it being from another year as this is a July to September moth.
