Marnix,
your description sounds to me like the pasture day moth
Apina calisto. Google it. I had lots of them when I did the Rd Hill survey a few
weeks ago.

Last Sunday I was out at Mulligans Flat North. Lots of
butterflies & moths around. One particular species caught my eye as it
looked like the Golden Sun Moth.
Can anyone tell me whether that is possible?
The moth had an orange/black striped abdomen, brown/white
patterned wings with some black, and a furry head with some black and white
striping. They were in semi-native grassland which contained kangaroo grass
among others.
Cheers
Marnix
