This may be a species of Cadmus, subgenus Lachnabothra.

Previously ID'd as Aporocera. This one looks so different from other Aporocera species I've done an "Undo" of the confirmation so it goes back to the Unidentified list.

But the Undo didn't work properly, and it remains ID'd as Aporocera !!

To try to rectify the situation, after a fix by Aaron, I've suggested & confirmed it as a Cadmus sp.
I intended to undo the confirmation but leave the suggestion, but when I did so I got an error "Page not found". So that didn't work either. Now it has remained as confirmed as Cadmus sp., but the text below the photos is gone.

Cadmus crucicollis was suggested & confirmed to test Aaron's latest fix.

The Undo of Cadmus crucicollis was successful.

But when I suggested Cadmus sp., the confirm button for Cadmus crucicollis disappeared. When I confirmed Cadmus sp., the confirm button for Cadmus crucicollis came back.

When I did an Undo for Cadmus sp., the confirm button for Cadmus sp. disappeared, and it remained as confirmed, ie no "(TBC)".

So still not working properly Aaron. Apologies to Kim, Alison & Stuart for all this fiddling.

Hi Aaron
I did a suggestion of Cadmus sp., then confirmed it, then did an Undo, and it seemed to work ok.
I'll leave it for Kim to do the final confirmation, or make a different ID, such as his idea of Cadmus sp, subgenus Lachnabothra.

This is a male. There is a female (as 'Aporocera chlamydiformis') figured in Roger Farrow's 'Insects of south-eastern Australia'.
