Larval case found on a small eucalypt on 31 January and was collected. It stopped moving and attached to the container a couple of days later. The adult moth hatched on 27 February and was released back to the collection site.

Great work. This may well be a useful addition to our knowledge of the larval stages. Do you know the species of eucalypt it was found on?

Thanks @donhe There seems to be some confusion though. This sighting is Chrysonoma fascialis, not Philobota philostaura
