Sorry Ian. Miss-hit the phone box again. But no long stick.

Yes, but are you sure the aduly moths matches C. lewinii?

I cannot see any diagnostic differences between photos of the adults of these two species on Bold and iNaturalist. Any suggestions?

OK. I thought C. ignobilis adults had a plain thorax in contrast to C. lewinii with a white striped thorax, but now I see this one has faint broad stripes,
