O. palliada has been recorded in the Kimberley. O. vinaria is a southern Australian species.

Oenochroma pallida

Species sighting shows the strigulated forewing pattern characteristic of both P. albicosta and P. ocyptera but without the clearly visible white line in the forewing and hindwing of P. albicosta. Moreeover the ALA distribution of the two species suggests P. ocyoptera is more likely and has been recorded in the Kimberly region previously.

Prasinocyma ocyptera
