I saw this moth last year in Wodonga but failed to get a picture. This time I chased it down to get the vibrant orange underside which was again unbelievable.

Thanks WendyEM. It was so memorable was determined to get that underside if nothing else for future IDing! :)

TY ibaird. That's what they do in the wild here - when they land its underside up. But its darn hard to see for me and the camera!
