User's notes
not seen this moth before. It looked dark chocolate grey solid to the eye, but with the macro lens on I can see its mottled. It sat for a very long time on the flower.

Yes, I think this species has been recorded several times recently. I may be wrong, bo\ut I don't think we have been able to identify it to species yet.
