Fodina ostorius

Erebidae: Subfamily Erebinae

Fodina ostorius the Rainforest Vine Moth occurs in Western Australia, Queensland, New South Wales and Victoria. We have seen this moth in November, December and February.

Larval Foodplant

In New South Wales larva are said to feed on Marsdenia suaveolens but the species we have on the property here is M. rostrata. Another foodplant is thought to be Tylophora barbata which is not recorded this far north in NSW.
