Not a Forester (Zygaenidae), a Day flying moth (Agariistinae), Coenotoca subaspersa, Rainforest Vine Day-moth.

A new species for NatureMapr's South Coast region. Due to its distrubutiion shown shown online it could be regarded as a quintessential sub-tropical coastal rangeing from SE Queensland to eastern Vicroria. Nice find.

iNat has Agariistinae = Forester moths and Zygaenidae as something else so I'll notify them.

This has now been fixed on iNat (apparently they call them Forester in the US)
