absence of markings on inner margin of hindwings suggests Taxeotis didymosticha

Taxeotis didymosticha is a small species that has, as far as I know, only been recorded in WA and western Victoria. 3384138 and 3384386 look like Taxeotis intextata that (along with stereospila) has been very common lately. Not all intextata specimens have clear markings on the hindwing inner margin.
