Significant numbers observed of this nationally critically endangered moth. The mean of the maximum number of moths seen at the 85 odd ACT locations is around 20 - so this site at Curtin is one of the sites with a largish population
User's notes
Around 100 golden sun moths seen in north Curtin horse paddocks today

I expect this population will disappear once they develop the site with embassies and other buildings.
