White-plume-moth by Peter Warne-Epping Forest Classed as a micro-moth - this is a daylight species and larger than most of the group. A really beautiful insect. https://flic.kr/p/2jauCim

#1538 - Ocystola sp.
An Oecophorid Micromoth in Mallet plantation, at edge of Wandoo woodland, out at Dryandra. These and a number of other small moths were flying around close to the ground until shortly after the sun rose over the hill.
Ocystola feeds on gum tree leaves, gluing to leaves together with silk, and folding one leaf like a tent. They pupate inside this shelter too.
As to exactly which Ocystola this is, that’s another question. It looks closest to one species that isn’t even native to Western Australia, but the markings are intermediate enough that it could be one of four, one of them as yet undescribed.
Various micromoths I always see these fluttering close to mowed grass when they've been disturbed. Although they all look quite similar in terms of color, they are all different species! It amazes me that there can be so much diversity in a few patches of grass. If anyone could identify what species they are, it would be appreciated. (For reference, I live in New Jersey)
