Another mystery one, I think.

Similar to 4414438 and 4357653, Should we group them together in our taxonomy?

Yes, and 4357653 and now also 4613493 although the last one seems slightly different in that the two brown colours are not the same and the proportions of yellow to brown seem different.

We could create another 'Oecophoridae Provisional Species' grouping ie, No 12.

No. 12 sounds like a good idea Ian.

Too hard to remember what all the provisional species are,
Easier to lump them all in 'Oecophoridae (family)', and let some future Ento PhD student sort them out.
