Thank you, Teresa. I looked up the sightings of Thelephora terrestris, and the fungi in my posting seems quite different? Really, it looked like a grey coral fungus with white tips. From the top, it looked like matchsticks standing up, and fanned out. I don't know if my description makes sense . . .

Yes there is apparently a lot of variation in the species from dark to very white specimens.

I suggest it is a foreshortened (low angle from below in the first image) female Ectropis excursaria although the definitive markings at the outer edges of the hindwing (an upturned 'mainline' marking) are not quite visible due to the overlap of the forewing.

Given the lack of dark 'shoulder' markings I agree it is likely to be E. ochracea rather than E. ocranthes.

It will pupate soon and stop eating the plant. The moth is rather lovely.
