  15. One of the recent iNaturalist highlights from Banks Peninsula is this little moth, that Mel Whiting photographed in the Port Hills above Taylor’s Mistake at the end of May. It was photographed visiting a yellow flower of the native oxalis, *Oxalis exilis*. They weren’t sure what it was and uploaded it to iNat to find out.

    Thanks to the identifications and comments by NZ moth experts Neville Hudson and Robert Hoare, it turns out to be a rare, and still undescribed, endemic NZ moth species, currently only known as *Scythris* “stripe”.

    Robert commented “Yes, amazing discovery! I think maybe only the 4th ever seen.”

    Two of those four observations were made on #iNaturalist, the other being a moth I found in the Port Hills above near the Sign of the Kiwi back in May 2022.

    Every observation counts, especially for rarely seen species like these species that we know so little about.
