. Within both of the populations there is variation in size. Some males have a white spot at the end of the cell and some white in the grey subapical spots on the upper side of the forewing. There is variation in the extent to which the orange-red discal spot runs into the median band on the upper side of the hindwing but they are almost always joined. The number of orange-red submarginal spots on both surfaces of the hindwing varies. The sexes are similar, however, the female is usually larger, displays an orange-red anal area in the upper side of the hindwing and has larger, more evident white markings on the upper side of the forewing.

, and in the Grampians, Victoria. On Kangaroo Island, the species appears to be largely restricted to the western end of the island where it can be quite abundant. This is likely to be due to clearance and fragmentation of habitat on the remainder of the island. The confirmed distribution is from the southern lagoons of McGillivray, through the southern sub-coastal Mallee, into similar habitat north of West Bay, in Flinders Chase National Park and along the Cape Borda road as far west as the Cape Borda lighthouse. It is particularly abundant in the Cape Borda Wilderness Protection Area and in the sub-coastal sections of Vivonne Bay. It was also observed on a bush property at the southern end of Mt. Taylor road (Seattons Lagoon) and in the Teatree Lagoon. A larva found at Kingscote Airport is likely to belong to this species. In the Grampians the species has been recorded at two localities: one near the north-east side of Moora Moora Creek (approximately

Based on observations by one of us (D.A.Y.), on Kangaroo Island the flight period starts in the first days of January and lasts until early February, with the moths being most abundant in the second and third week of January. Emergence occurs in the early to mid morning. The moths swarm in sunny conditions in dry Mallee country where courtship and mating was observed in the early afternoon. The males fly rapidly up and down tracks and open areas in the Mallee habitat. Occasionally, the moths would bask on the ground with their wings slightly raised or rest on small branches with their wing held roof-wise (

). Pairs of moth were observed, with the female pursued by a male flying between and around low vegetation in a pattern of loops and short bridging flights. Sporadically, the moths would alight on a piece of low vegetation or fallen branch, often in quite dense growth. The female would always land above the male and climb upwards in short, jerky spurts, sometimes spiralling around the trunk as it climbed, the male pursuing it. During a period of 20-25 minutes this process was repeated 4-5 times. Finally, during one of these occasions, the male moved to the opposite side of the trunk, and when roughly the same height, reached his abdomen around the trunk, and coupling took place. Mating lasted for about 40-60 minutes (

plants regularly. If it landed adjacent to a sedge, it would approach it in a series of jerky bursts of movement and probe it with its antennae. The female would then climb over and onto the leaves, which was accompanied by a series of rapid wing movements. After a brief period, the moth would back down towards the base of the plant (

). At this point, the elongate ovipositor could be seen rapidly extending in and out of the abdomen. The wing flapping would become more and more frantic as the moth approached the base of the plant. As she extended her ovipositor, the wings would be held back to back above the body, in a manner reminiscent of the posture of butterflies. As ovipositing was taking place, the moth would become perfectly still in the described posture. Oviposition would last from less than one to around three minutes. The moth would then start to flap its wings again, while walking back up the sedge or away from it across open sand before flying off. Eggs were found at a depth of around

The eggs were of an expanded spindle shape and laterally grooved. The colour was a cream tinted white when fresh, becoming light pink as the egg matured and mid-pink just before larval emergence. The first instar larvae are strong reddish pink in colour.
