The 'Moths in the A.C.T.' book doesn't mention Plantain or Reddish Wave moth - for the next edition.

Glenn C. says given the nature of ‘Moths in the ACT’, hard editing decisions were necessary given the need to keep the text brief and save space in formatting. Some of the most ‘common’ of names were used eg ‘Bogong Moth’, but scientific binomial names had priority, of course. Scopula rubraria is very commonly recorded in the ACT.
