User's notes
Wing spot looks the same as previous sighting, but head is white and eyes red? Are these male and female of same species, or different species?

This moth;shead is quitedifferent to P. xiphistola: no yellow, no dark 'collar'. There is a black spot on the forewing.

Thank you. Is this the southern most recording? I can only look at ALA, and am wondering what the records you have access to indicate/
