Four more moths from #Canberra last night.
The first one, a #Leptozestis sp. (#Elachistidae) has incredible shining tufts of scales on its forewings - and a #fly hitchhiking on its head.
The gleaming white #moth is #Chasmina pulchra (#Noctuidae).
The small moth with a barred fringe and a brown saddle is #Moerarchis inconcisella (#Tineidae).
The moth with spread wings is the very common #Nacoleia rhoeoalis (#Crambidae).

I run an automated #moth light and motion-detection #camera each night and now have literally hundreds of thousands of timestamped images to segment and go through identifying insects to try to train an #AI classifier.
Sample image from 23:36 last night here in Aranda, ACT, with #Nacoleia rhoeoalis (male, top-left), #Gastrophora henricaria (orange hindwings), #Ptyoptila matutinella (pink/orange, top-centre) and a locally common but undescribed #Aporoctena species (brown/orange centre).
