When I was chasing it around I thought Dichromodes, but looking at it maybe Paranotoreas?

夜蛾科 (科 Noctuidae)描述
ooooo, a small green noctuid with a white stripe on Olearia virgata.
Could this be a very early instar Meterana exquisita? Not enough photos of caterpillars anywhere! Doesn't look much like the chonky caterpillar in https://www.researchgate.net/publication/287164039_Lepidoptera_of_small-leaved_divaricating_Olearia_in_New_Zealand_and_their_conservation_priority

Quite taken with these. One of those moths where if you change your angle of view slightly you get totally different colours and scale reflections from the moth. Crisp evening on the beach

Not a new one for me, but a good Wellington Region biodiversity record and first North Island photo record on iNat.
The Aciphylla squarossa squarossa has a hard life with a least two moths and a weevil!
An Ichneutica insignis for scale

score! I wasn't sure I had anything new, especially given the effort involved to wander around here in the dark.
Had half of dozen of them, some paler than this purple one (https://inaturalist.nz/observations/205864913), but only made an effort to get one to settle down, as they tended towards a raised wing posture.

屬 Paramorpha描述
Another interesting moth from the misty-frosty-haul10+kg of stuff for no mothy night.
Found on a Mountain Toatoa.
Looks a bit like the Hudson painting of Heterocrossa maculosa, or Paramorpha, but in comparison to existing Paramorpha observations doesn't seem to match pattern of black dots, definitely doesn't have an orange leading edge of the wing, and more silver mottled with grey scales.

A big highlight in a very long and disappointing night. Went so far as to haul the 6kg battery with AC to power a big MV bulb 3km down to the middle of the bog. It attracted 0 moths. The LepiLED I put up another km away in the forest barely brought in anything at all. Found this one on the way up into the forest. Plenty of Pseudowintera

It was quite a surprise to suddenly come across one of these! Like last time, it was sitting out in the open, during the day, in some low kiokio.

Pupa in leafmine on Pseudopanax arboreus, emerged 24 Sep 2023. Note the magnificent rhinoceros-horn-like cocoon-cutter on the pupal head.

exciting new moth! After much staring this might be it although there's a slight problem in that Hudson watercolour and type photo are purple...
