User's notes
This moth had been caught by the Celaenia calotoides spider shown in sighting 4713869. I collected it after it escaped alive from its webbing. It was about 7 mm long. The spider has been catching about equal numbers of these and what look to be the Philobota productella caught by the same species of spider and described in sighting 4413496.
