A first record for the species for NatureMapr and NatureMapr's Canberra and Southern Tablelands Region when confirmed. Excellent photos.

Yes, I agree. Looking at Moths of Victoria (Part 9) supporting disc for the Proteuxoa spp. it looks a good match for the identifying features the authors outline for the species:-
'prominent white orbicular spot; large buff-coloured reniform mark with a long tail; additional small white spot near forewing base'. The banded frontal face to the thorax matchedstoo.
The authors also say P. marginalis is known to occur in NSW and the ACT.

The moth was beautiful. Transparent and delicate. The photo is not totally in focus. And then the moth flew off before I could get my looking-at-things-closer glasses to check it and take more if needed. And I couldn't find it again.
