After 6mm of rain on the 1st May, I had another 'session' with the Rain Moths.
They generally emerge after rain from Autumn to early Winter.
There can be a variation in colouring from pale to quite dark.

Although newly emerged, this one is interesting as it appears to have a couple of bald spots.
Yesterday, I went on the search for casings. This one protruded from the ground about 2.5cm.

This casing was 8cm in length. The caterpillars feed on eucalypt roots.
